Someone up above mentioned:

I get to pay them $750 per yer more than last year. A 10% savings on asswipe doesn't seem like such a great deal after all.

All you gotta do is buy $7500 per year worth of asswipes to break even.(?)

A recent article that I saw "somewhere" (I think the subject was "victimizing of the elderly?) claimed that an elderly lady was induced to "subscribe" to what apparently was an "asswipe of the month" plan under which they automatically sent her a fresh supply each month. When the "plan" was discovered, they estimated that she had a little over a 4 year supply on hand. Since she probably payed at least 3x (more likely 5x) what it was worth, she might have made break-even on your plan.

It can be done! When you get old you have to consider all the possibilities.
