Oprah, you’ve done it again.
I just spent a ridiculous amount on Oprah’s Magazine subscription. When I saw that 24 issues only cost $24, I just couldn’t contain myself. Filled up the subscription as fast as I could, as if there was a drought of O Magazines. Then, there was the “Pay extra $5 to get a special offer” button. “Oprah will never rip me off!”, I said to myself excitedly. So I checked that box too. Then at the final stage of the sub, I clicked on the “Place Order” button, and TA-DA! A smack in the face with the Oprah bill.
How did it come up to $85.00 CAD?
“Sales tax will be charged where applicable. Non-US subscribers will be charged an additional US$22.00 for
O, The Oprah Magazine and US$8.00 forO at Home per term for shipping. “
WHAT? I didn’t see that.
Gawd, I am such a sucker for her.
