Model Railroader subscription ?

For about 3 months now my old subscription ended and I've been running down to Borders to get my monthly fix since. I go to re-new at Trains.com and see it is $43.00, but I remember those cards for around $35. I don't have a card so I searched online and found this:

What am I missing here?

Kalmbach does not condone ANY 3rd party subscription services.  Check the blow-in cards in your recent copies of MRR,  they seem to be running about $39.95.  I just sent in a "Please Reconsider" card for $29.95 that they mailed to me.  Maybe they've figured out that  their customer base is eroding....

Guess I'll just wait till next month and save the cards this time. Hard to stop buying it.

Yeah, for all the bashing MR takes, I still think it's a good read...

I buy MR and Trains in the LHS when they have articles that interest me. Have not subscribed in 10 years or so.

They sent me one of those $29.95 forms. I signed up. Big savings from the $5.50 per month.

The price of MRR since the October issue is now $5.95 so even more savings.
