No Redplum in today's Hamilton Spectator

[LizCabral]

Did anyone get the Redplum in today's Saturday Spectator?

I didn't

I found a copy in my freebie National Post.

Just wondering if perhaps mine was pilfered

I didn't get one in my Saturday Star, and I didn't get last week's inserts either.

I just finished emailing the Spec (there is an actual box you can tick off when your flyers are missing)

We'll see what they do about it.

Would be great to get a replacement Redplum.

My mom got hers in her Spec home delivery, she is closer to stoney creek/grimsby area. My neighbor usually brings hers over to me when she gets one, but I already saw her today, and she had nothing for me.
I did get one in the freebie post.

A friend's newspaper had the insert and it was disappointing. The scented products (air fresheners, cleaners) are not used at home.

Of the few coupons offered, the salad dressing and fish product coupons were the two that I would use. The other pages were for offers like magazines, Magic Jack or Sears Optical.

I'm in Burlington, but I got one in the Saturday Star. I almost always got inserts in the Sunday Sun too when I subscribed to it :O I don't know what kind of free press they have in Hamilton, but my grams always gets inserts in the Free Scarborough Mirror every week too.

Hamilton's versions of the Burlington Post are the Ancaster News, Dundas Star News, Hamilton Mountain News and Stoney Creek News. Aside from the Foodland Compliments burger coupon published during the summer, the offers tend to be for local businesses only, not store chain or manufacturers' coupons.

The Thursday View newspaper is entertainment oriented-might be good for looking at dining out offers published or bars/clubs but not coupons generally. Occasionally an event coupon can be found if you like attractions in the area.

There really isn't much free press with regular coupon offers outside of flyers in the community newspapers.

Yeah there isnt really a community newspaper for the Hamilton City area, just the suburby types around it

I contacted the Stoney Creek Times about inserts and I got a response saying that only subscribers to the Spec get the inserts and if they have extra they give them to the free local papers. In the almost four years that I have lived in Stoney Creek, I have never seen an insert in my paper although I have a friend on the mountain who says she has gotten one in her Mountain News a couple of times.
