Star News vs. News and Observer Round Two!


I have decided to list the coupons that come in each paper weekly, since each paper has different coupons. Last week the Star News and Observer smashed the Raleigh News and Observer with WAY more coupons, by over $36.


This week at first glance it appears that the winner will be Raleigh's paper. The Star News had a very thin insert, filled with mostly ads. Very disappointing at first glance, but let's take a closer look!

Need I say more? The Raleigh News and Observer is the obvious winner this week! Pretty much every coupon that was in the Wilmington Paper was also in the Raleigh paper, so I wouldn't even bother getting the Star News today, unless you got it for free!


By the way, today is the last day of Food Lion's three day sale. They have Gain 50 oz detergent for only $3.99, which is already a great deal. Take your $2.00 off coupon from today's paper and you can get it for $1.99! This is a great opportunity to STOCK UP!!!! Ask your neighbors for their extra papers if you can!
