purpleeagle Posted July 19, 2023 Report Posted July 19, 2023 The last time I went into the site to subscribe it was 40 dollars because it had a second magazine that I did not want attached to it with automatic renewal every year. I did not want the earlier addition because I do not have an outhouse to put it in. I totally refuse to pay for something I do not want or need. The magazine is now worth 40 dollar and you will find out that it will probably be 50 dollars next year. Reagan, 89Falcon and KF89 2 1 Quote

Especially when the price on the cover is $11.95 US !! 89Falcon and Reagan 2 Quote

purpleeagle Posted July 20, 2023 Report Posted July 20, 2023 So, Center, Hemphill, Jasper, woodville, Beaumont, Newton, Bridge City,are among the areas with no coverage, just to mention a few. Wonder if this is going on across the state. Big cities like Houston, Dallas ,Austin , are probably the ones that can afford to take the loss. Quote

oldman Posted July 20, 2023 Report Posted July 20, 2023 Matt ….. appreciate all the work you guys put in. So say you distribute as usual and incur a tremendous loss in revenue just to satisfy the masses. That is not a very good economic decision. Things change…. I’m old school , yet I have to learn the new way of doing things. People will still view Texas Football in whatever format it is distributed. Quote

The same masses that made the magazine the success it become. KF89 1 Quote
Dirty_but_Dazzling Posted July 20, 2023 Report Posted July 20, 2023 so gradually try to force people into $50 subscriptions is the way to go uh? I don't care how well it's liked by myself or others good luck sustaining with that approach. 89Falcon and Separation Scientist 2 Quote
