   Our local paper (The San Jose Mercury) is up to $3 an issue. I still buy the Friday, Saturday and Sunday papers, but I get them at a vending machine that charges $2.00 per paper including the Sunday edition. It’s still a lot given that the papers are less than half of the contents that they were in “the good old days”. The vendor must be aware that his price is the same as it was before the Pandemic, maybe he (or she) doesn’t know how to update the machine, or they don’t care—which makes me wonder how much they pay for the paper and still make a profit.
