I answered "no" because I'm now paying about $2 per day which is higher than it was before the removal of WaPo Magazine and, of course, The Style Invitational. I have been paying more and getting less. As I am occasionally called to the WaPo surveys by Qualtrics, I have been able to offer a very negative opinion of some of the latest consolidation ideas that have been floated. In addition to already inflated costs, I've also lost the offsetting value of the Wednesday food section and Sunday inserts coupons. Before Super Double Coupons died in the pandemic at Harris-Teeter, 20 of those maxed out bad boys could save me $40 on a grocery order back when that would have covered half the cost of an 8-week, 7-day fishwrap edition and maybe 85% of the order. Super Double Coupons was about every 6 weeks, so sometimes I might even cover the full cost of the subscription. Those were the days.

RIP Sunday Book World, also.
