Real Simple Magazine . . . I ordered it several years ago, then decided that all the articles were basically the same and resolved to let my subscription lapse. I haven''t paid a bill since fall of 2004. But they just keep on sending it (with periodic notices about how they were really, really going to stop sending it if I didn''t resubscribe).
So then when we moved, I thought, hmmm, maybe I can update my mailing address without having to pay (I don''t like it enough to pay for it but don''t mind getting it for free). They have this thing where you can choose to be billed then or be billed later (um, how about later?). I did have to send in some response card verifying my new address, and then they sent another bill. Finally they gave in and I just received my August issue.
I guess having x subscribers to tell their advertisers about is more important than the $22 or however much they charge for a year subscription. But I just wanted to let you guys know in case you are paying for it. I guess I''m a bad girl.
