If you haven’t subscribed to the AV Club puzzles because paying the $22 subscription fee isn’t affordable, there’s good news—you can email Ben Tausig at editor@avxwords.com and let him know you’d like the free subscription. Same great puzzles, no charge. No questions asked—you need not explain your financial situation.
From now through next Wednesday, June 13, donations to the AV Club tip jar will be earmarked for the pool that covers the free subscriptions. If you would still subscribe even if the subscription cost were doubled, it would be cool of you to contribute a few bucks to make more free subscriptions available.
