Glenda Powell Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I have just come back from the Information Centre to pick up a copy of the Journal, only to be shown a letter from the Journal office stating as from next week the Hereford Journal is no longer FREE, there will be a cost of 45p per copy to members of the public, this will come into effect next week. They are also looking for new outlets for the journal to be picked up from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Smith Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I guess that is the end of the journal then as it is certainly not worth 45p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenda Powell Posted February 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I guess that is the end of the journal then as it is certainly not worth 45p Frank - I couldn't agree more with your sentiments. it is a pity because it was a good paper when it started.

H.Wilson Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 They are in dreamland if they think it is worth 45p, looks like the end is near for the journal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, this will kill it for sure, surprised to think they perceive it has that value... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biomech Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 heh, thanks for the bump Colin. I don't by papers, but if I did, I'd pay 45p for it, I find it far superior than the trash that the HT put out. The HT that's what, £1.40 now? and 90% housing and car adverts.I find the advertising rates at the HJ much better and the staff more pleasant to speak with. How about the old admag, everytime it appears on my floor, with it's 5 pages or so, I always wonder what it is :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubique Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Living out in the sticks this paper has not been free for a number of months - if it's purchased from our local village shop it costs 50p. I think also that its 50p from a supermarket in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenda Powell Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I class myself as fortunate, other than when they first said it would be 45p it disappeared for three months, then one Thursday evening it was put through my letterbox, and has been delivered ever since free of charge. I must agree the Journal is far superior to HT and if you want something put into the Journal it is printed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
