I wonder if I somehow got on a super secret VIP list and get special treatment?
I called, got through quickly, told them I did not want to renew because I found that I wasn't actually reading it all that much, and they promptly canceled.
Somewhere in there I realized I should make sure they were only cancelling the paper so I told them I wanted to keep my crossword subscription and that I realized that this would mean I'd pay full price when my crossword renewed instead of the 50% off price paper subscribers get.
They told me it was indeed only the paper that I had cancelled, but told me I was wrong about the crossword price. The offer for paper subscribers is to buy a half price crossword subscription and that's what I bought. It remains a half price crossword prescription as long as you keep it.
Not being sarcastic, but what's special about the NYT crossword? Why not just go to a Barnes&Noble (or whatever) and grab a crossword book off the shelf?
The NYT crossword subscription gets you full access to their app which has every crossword they’ve ever published, and a bunch of other crossword-like puzzles.
