Sorry Wrong Numbers™: Tampa Bay Times Charges More For Longer Term Subscriptions - IMRAN™ Call me old fashioned, but I always thought buying more or subscribing for longer terms meant paying less, not more. In this case, Tampa Bay Times charges $7 per month (so $42 for 6 months, half a year).... but wait, if you subscribe for the full six months with a single larger payment, they charge you more, $44.20! That tags this as a post in two of my long running labels... "Sorry Wrong Number(s)" AND "CustomerExperience UserExperience UserInterface Design Aren't RocketScience". Share any examples of strange pricing you have seen too! © 2023 IMRAN™ #advertising, #CustomerExperience, #discounts, #humor, #IMRAN, #ImranAnwar, #iPhone, #marketing, #mathematics, #newspapers, #numbers, #SorryWrongNumbers, #strange, #subscriptions, #TampaBay, #TampaBayTimes, #UrUXSux, #pricing,Sorry Wrong Numbers™: Tampa Bay Times Charges More For Longer Term Subscriptions - IMRAN™ Call me old fashioned, but I always thought buying more or subscribing for longer terms meant paying less, not more.
