Advantages: Cheap introductory offer saving you lots of money Disadvantages: They wont let me leave, help me please
Back in October 2001, whilst trawling through another days useless emails. I stumbled across one that caught my eye ?3 books for £3!? it said (Postage & Packaging EXTRA in very small, small print!) Now, I have never been much of a reader and mostly buy books to prop up wonky furniture. But this seemed like a bargain not to be missed. For only a few pounds my furniture would be level for years! So, curiosity aroused, I clicked on the provided link and was presented with the TSP website. Having had trouble with these types of club before, I was very wary of the terms and conditions. But to my amazement, not only could I purchase these items at bargain prices, but also I did not have to buy anything off them again? EVER! This is unusual, as most book/video clubs require a certain amount of items to be purchased over a certain period of time ...

Advantages: 3 books for £3 Disadvantages: Editors choice, P + P
I joined TSP (The Softback Preview) back in the beginning of last year. I was quite shocked when I saw the deal. It was three books for £3! (no mention of the postage and packaging which is extra) That is something that is rare and very unusual these days, such a money saving offer. I then looked at the commitment side of the club and there was no commitment, I was truly shocked, because book clubs always offer these excellent offers and then catch you out by getting you to buy 4 or 5 books in the first year. Which in the end means you have paid back for the books you got ‘free’ in the first place. When you buy the books you do have to pay for postage and packaging that makes the books a bit more expensive, but there is still a considerable saving.
I found this offer through www.mypoints.co.uk (a site where you collect ...

Advantages: Three books for £3.00 wow what a great deal Disadvantages: Received unwanted book.
I kept seeing TSP being advertised, and thought what a great deal a choice of 3 books for £3.00. The choice is of books is a bit limited, but I managed to find 3 books. The AA map, King of Torts and Th Motleyfool guide. So I have got my moneys worth. Also there is no commitment to buy. You can cancel after 6 months. Each month they send you a letter with a recommended book and you can either post, phone or use their web site. So I choose to use the web site and cancel my recomended book. Although I done this I still received the book and it would cost me money to return the book as they said I had not cancelled the book. After quite a few calls and emails, they agreed for me to return the book free of charge and suggested that if I wanted to cancel future recommended books that I should call instead. I have since cancelled my membership ...
