Message: [QUOTE="Bliss, post: 2428610, member: 6630"] I delivered daily newspapers on my Schwinn (still have it - Mrs. Bliss finally gave up trying to convince me to get rid of it) back in the 50's; rain or shine, snow or blow. Had about 45 subscribers on my route in small-town IL. Hardest part was knocking on each door every Saturday to collect the twenty-five-cent weekly fee. Paid the monthly charge from the newspaper from this and kept the rest as earnings. Was a really good racket for a kid who didn't mind occasional nasty weather. [/QUOTE]
