U-T raises street sales price

The U-T has boosted the price of its street-sales papers to $1.50 from $1.00, confirmed Harry Woldt, circulation director. He does not expect street sales to go down much as a result of the boost, and the higher price should offset any sales loss in revenue to the company, he says.

He would not say what percentage street sales are of total sales. Asked other questions, he said, "We don't talk about strategies."
