DRF Home Delivery

This seems like a question I should know the answer to but in Canada could I get the DRF delivered to my home and pay for it that way?

The only thing I can find about delivery is here:
https://promos.drf.com/homedelivery

Thanks in advance

Not sure what you want. I use brisnet.com. I can download and print out the basic past performances, just like in the Racing Form, for $1 per card. That's all the past performances at any track, usually at least a day before the race.

What I was asking was since convenience stores newsstands and otbs etc are getting the DRF's delivered I wondered if I could get the paper to my house?

I know I could get the digital paper but I am a hard copy guy for using the DRF

I supplied the answer to your question from your own link. Is your zipcode on the ones listed?

Right. It use to be a daily home subscription meant you got the paper a day after the races included within were run...IF the subscription was through the DRF. I had it home delivered for many years but the delivery was through a local news agency(they don't really exist any longer in most places) and came with my daily Chicago Tribune and on the racing day. Towards the end,I was getting the paper a day early and received Saturdays and Sundays together. If a local news agency still exists in your area you might have a shot at getting it and getting it well in time.

Everything has been pretty much explained already in this thread.

Why would you even want home delivery of the paper form when you can get it electronically? I'm guessing far cheaper than having the paper delivered (if they offered such a thing in Canada, which they obviously do not).
