Los Angeles Times: Thousands of eateries, auto repair shops, barbers and other small businesses have relied on PennySaver for more than 50 years to get their name in front of potential customers in their neighborhoods. The company that became a staple in mailboxes everywhere closed late Friday after completing this week’s mailings. Hundreds of employees were let go without any explanation about why PennySaver was ceasing operations. PennySaver could yet be extended a lifeline, but media analysts weren’t surprised to see the demise of a business whose lifeblood, like the struggling newspaper industry, is a printed product.
