So today I decided to cancel my subscription to the Edmonton Journal. I had no problem with the paper, but to renew they wanted $18.99 which I think is too much. At that rate it would almost be cheaper to pick it up from newspaper boxes.
So I called them up and asked to cancel. They asked why I was canceling, and when I answered, they offered me a rate of $27.99 for two months. That was good enough for me, so I didn’t cancel.
Why am I bringing this up? Because I’ve been trying to cancel my newspaper for about three years. Every time they give me a cheaper rate and I take it.
You would think they would have noticed what I’ve been doing by now.
