sraunNot that I'd doubted any of the reports, but I just got a phone call from them.
We've been getting the Saturday & Sunday Star Tribune for ... five years? Maybe seven? now. We had a three month 'free week-day with week-end' last year sometime.
Earlier this afternoon they called to offer a change in our subscription. $2.49/week (down from $2.60), guaranteed not to go up for life (but I've only got their verbal word on it, and I wasn't recording the call), for seven daily papers.
They're really desperate for subscribers!
