I got the NYT delivered to my door today |
|
I don't know why...no promo attached to sign up for a subscription. No explanation, maybe it was a mistake. But I do want to know one thing...how the hell do people read this thing every day? It's thicker than the Sunday Hartford Courant! Maybe all the full-page full-color movie ads do it...I understand the rest of it is all lies.
:hippie:

1. They do that now and then |
|
I was a TA for a class that used the paper as an assigned textbook a few years back. I got the paper for free for 5 days a week. When the semester ended, I expected the delivery to stop. It did not. I called and asked them to halt it, but still the paper came. I figured that if they insisted on sending me free newspapers I wasn't going to stop them. It took them 2 years to figure out I wasn't supposed to be getting the paper for free before they finally stopped.

2. You didn't get it for free.......... |
|
You got it under a program called "Newspapers in Education." A merchant in that community paid for it for you. The newspaper does this because it increases their "paid circulation" numbers.
