What’s the going rate for a paper round these days?


I used to get £7.50 a week in the mid 90s. Must have been about 40 papers. Sunday was a bastard if I was on me bike had to do it in 2 half’s cos the bag was too heavy with all the extra supplements. Only got Xmas day off too. My mate did the milk and that paid better but he used to get up at 3am!
 
I didn't do papers, but I did do leaflets for my local shop. One pound per thousand in the 70s.

When I said I didn't want to do it anymore the (older) lad who then did them got ten pound per thousand.

Appreciate that is no help whatsoever to the OP... I mean, its not like I'm bitter nearly 50 years later or anything...:oops:
