This is exactly what I have been looking for, until my turkish is better anyway. Do you know if it is an actual newspaper as well or is it just internet based?

I think you should compare it with the other English language newpapers such Turkish Daily News: 1.5 YTL
So price is fair. |

I understand that the price for english language newspapers is higher, but it doesn't help people like me who are under education and can't afford it. When I've finished and have a decent job in a couple of years, hopefully I'll be able to speak turkish anyway, so it won't matter then.
Anyway, I'm really glad that there are some offers for those who live in Turkey and don't speak the language. |
