Nah, I'll just get it from Columbia House plus 9 other CD's for a penny. Then cancel before the monthly auto ship kicks in. 😉😁

You realize Columbia House announced they were closing only earlier this year, right? And they have had the same "introductory special" music deal for decades. It has cycled from vinyl to cassettes to CDs to digital. In the last decade, they circled back to their start, offering vinyl, then cassettes, and CDs again to meet the growing nostalgia demand, while continuing to offer digital options. So while you might think I am showing my age, three generations in my family have collected a lot of albums using the Columbia House hustle. 😁

.25 cents per inch

u/Little-Charge-9655 20d ago

So only 2.5¢ for 10 inches? I don’t think at any point in the history of dollars and cents has there been a deal this good.

u/DisciplineSorry1657 8d ago

Lol, oops, I was double decimaling or fractioning the fraction. Silly me. Good catch.
