Star News vs. News and Observer


This morning both my Raleigh Newspaper and my Wilmington newspaper had one Smart Source Insert. At first glance they appear to be very similar but the Raleigh feels thicker. Both papers had a nice selection of useful coupons, too!


The Raleigh paper had coupons for New York Brand Toast Products, Farm Rich Mozzarella Sticks, Butterball Turkey Products, Tabasco Sauce, Campbells Soups, Kraft Cheese products (these are rare so I'm excited), Jose Ole, Wolfgang Puck Pasta Sauce, Pediasure, Starbucks, Ziploc bags and containers, Tylenol, Kotex Products, Dole Fruit Crisps, Lysol No-Touch Kitchen System, Scott paper products, Hormel and Lloyds Products, Cottonnelle, Pagoda Express, Goodnites Underwear, Skintimate Shave Gel, Schick Quattro, Naturelief, Colgate Toothpaste, Brita Pitchers, Pullups, Revlon, Welch's Fruit n Yogurts, Dreamfields Pasta, Jergens, Dean's Dips, Jolly Time Popcorn, Depend Products, Purina One Dog Food, Digiorno Pizzas, Friskies, Ortega Products, Pet Milk, Viva Paper Towels, Huggies Diapers and Wipes, Longhorn Steakhouse, Fruity Pebbles, Activia Yogurt, Scrubbin Bubbles, Pledge, Shout, Windex, Glade, Cape Cod, Eat Think Smile Bars, Revlon, Wisk, Sorrento Cheese, Act, Brisk Fusion Drinks.


The Wilmington paper was much thinner. It did not contain the New York Products coupons, Tabasco, Glade, Kraft Cheese, Lysol no-touch, Colgate, Dreamfields Pasta, Dean's Dips, Purina, Friskies, Ortega, Fruity Pebbles, Scrubbin Bubbles, and possibly a few others that I may have missed. It is definitely thinner with more ads.


Overall, I would say to definitely get the Raleigh paper this week if you can! The Wilmington isn't bad and still offers some great coupons but you will get more for your money with the Raleigh paper!


Until next week.......
