I live in essex, and the paper is 20p every day(except saturday) and i went to my parents in hampshire, and bought it for 35p! My friend reads it every day in hampshire, and it is always 35p! Any Ideas?
Newspapers are normally printed in 2 or 3 versions because of logistic problems. However, where a newspaper that is printed in Essex is distributed at Hampshire, transportation or courier, insurance etc would have to jack up costs.

The sun is printed in more than one place. I think Liverpool is one. They have it on offer in some places and not others. You will also find the headlines often differ. References :

There are less articles and more ads in the Essex printed version.

If you think that’s expensive you should see the price in Spain ( printed in Spain ) which is about £2-50p ( equivalent.)
