TAGG – ISSUE 27 excerpt…

“Hey weasel!!! Yes, you!!!”
Now that we have attracted your attention, please bear with us for a moment, while we flash facts and figures.
Over 400 eager optimists have already paid $10 each to subscribe to TAGG, which, as we all know, is free. Why!!
It’s ‘cheaper’ then free, is why. Unless you live next door to an outlet, you’ll probably catch a bus or tram to pick up a copy. As the minimum fare in Melbourne is now 25c, going out to get your FREE TAGG must cost you at least 50c round trip. Of course you could get really lucky and have to try 2 or 3 outlets before you find one with any copies left. With the increasing popularity of TAGG, we have found that 90% of our outlets run out within 2 to 3 days – to afford bigger press runs and wider distribution, we need your help.
So don’t be a weasel, be a subscriber and help us to help you – and at only $10 for a whole year (that’s 40c per copy), what a good gift a TAGG sub makes – echoing your consideration every fortnight…
