Renewed. Dwell Magazine
Tuesday, March 31st, 2009I miss my Dwell Magazine. I thought that by renewing our Walker membership in February I would automatically get my subscription extended (my last issues was December/January), as complimentary subscriptions to Dwell are a brand new membership benefit. Here I am and it’s nearly April… STILL NO Dwell. Seeing Tom’s Cook’s Illustrated come yesterday caused a twinge of jealousy, so I broke down and called customer service. I was originally planning to just inquire about the status of my subscription; then they told me it could take “120 days” before any word from the Walker reached them. 120 days sounded like a really long time. Do you think they’re trained to say things like that? That is, to make me feel like that? Anyway you know what happened; I renewed. I even asked them for the back issues that I missed. I even paid the news stand price for one. I was a little desperate, I guess. Tom chuckled a little at this, but not wanting to suffer saver’s remorse, I decided to say, “why not?!”
