This is a little sad. I wasn't the target demographic for Dailycandy's newsletters, but I still got some pretty useful information out of them now and again. Looks like they're shutting down due to financial reasons. Here's what Universal Hub had to say:
Valleywag reports the daily shopping e-mail newsletter for women is shutting its Boston edition now that Comcast, which paid $125 million for the operation a year or so ago, realizes there's no way it can recoup its investment fully staffing the provincial towns outside New York and a few other large cities. Boston subscribers will instead get an "everywhere" edition with a couple of Boston tidbits thrown in now and again.
No way to recoup its investment? Tell me about it. I think I make about a dollar a day nowadays via this blog (apparently people have gotten too smart to click on ads). Good thing I'm doing it for fun and not for the money.
