I received a Marketing Research Discount coupon from Pop Wooddorking
the other day. $15.96 for 2 years. Some of the projects looked
interesting (Stickley repro, Odate dining table, Charlsworth stuff),
and I get a digital copy of Roy Underwood's school thang. then I saw
the "Add $2 for shipping and handling" note and wanted to scream.
Anyway, 2 years of a woodworking mag for under $20 was a good deal so
I took it. I emailed to find out when it would start. "Oh, it'll
take 4-6 days to process and then you'll get the next issue,
probably APRIL 2010. thud grumble grumble


I bit that bait also... and the $2 extra is BS. Do they think we are
stupid???? Apparently so.... Just say $17.95 and quit trying to
trick us. They sent me a DVD last spring and I tossed it, then they
wanted me to pay for it, which I gave them no response to for any of
the 3 or 4 follow up letters. I clearely added to my coupon to not
send any thing that I do not order unless they are giving it away.

Uh, by law in the US if they send you something you did not order they _did_
give it away.
