A newspaper consistently provides the most reliable answers to questions such as, "Who is my mayor?" and "What's that fiery ball in the sky, and what does it want from me?" Get informed with today's Groupon: for $24, you get an eight-week subscription to the Sunday edition of The New York Times ($60 value). Home delivery of The New York Times includes access to the Replica Edition, and subscribers get discounts at the online store.

Since 1851, The New York Times has scoured the earth to inform its inhabitants with up-to-date, compelling stories, collecting a total of 104 Pulitzer Prizes in the process. Flip through sections such as the front page, which provides global and national coverage, Sunday Sports, which keeps tabs on the worlds of professional and amateur sports plus the vast majority of company sack races, and a host of Sunday-exclusive reading material. Sunday Styles illuminates readers about fashion trends, nightlife, and weddings, and the Travel section quenches adventure thirst and eases destination famine. T Magazine, overseen by Sally Singer, formerly the fashion news and features editor at Vogue, reports on the latest trends and developments in the world of fashion. The Sunday edition also includes stories produced in collaboration with the award-winning journalists at The Bay Citizen, keeping Times readers aware of local happenings with a two-page dose of Bay Area intelligence, which mixes perfectly with morning coffee but only after being blended into a fine newspaper slurry.

The New York Times has in the past offered eight-week subscriptions to new subscribers for $30; however, that discount is no longer available and this Groupon represents the best deal they've ever offered.
