Heaven help us.  How are we supposed to keep up with these blinking
crooks???
I was looking for a good deal on a used book the other day, and just before
I bought it I noticed that my purchase would automatically include signing
myself up for some FREE access-to-discounts "service" which would cost $35 a
month or so, starting next month!
They figure out amazing angles.
I hope this doesn't make a mess you are left having to straighten out.
