• The Wall Street Journal and Baron's are offering a $2.50/week subscript

    From Bill Horne@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 3 12:07:36 2023
    I just came across this offer, and I was moved to sign up for a year,
    so I'm passing it along FYI.

    The terms are that you get the Wall Street Jounal, and Baron's, and
    Market Watch for $2.50 per week, for one year. After that, it's about
    $50 per "four week period" - in other words, ~$650/year.

    I'm not going to get paid if you sign up for the trial, and I don't
    own any stock in the Dow Jones Co.

    I'm passing along the entire URL, because if you use only the web
    address, the price goes up to $3.75 per week. Please feedback your
    results if they differ from mine.

    I've peridcially seen the WSJ offer $1/wk (without Barrons),
    and I'm now in my 2.5th year of them...

    It's annoying that they play the whole "you have to call
    us to cancel" deal and then go through the garbage, but
    otherwise no great problem.

    I start looking for a new offer at about 45 weeks in..

    * I'm suddenly wondering if the Dow-Jones Industrial Average,

    * Say it ain't so!
