An update to our shipping
The US Postal service has informed me that we can no longer send magazines as first class mail, more than doubling our costs for shipping, which unfortunately means we have to bump all print subscriptions to the higher tier rate of $15 that we recently rolled out ($149.00 for yearly I think is the discounted rate).I re...
