So I just got a science fiction book club mailing...
and I lost it. I can't find the code to give me the super special deal. Does anyone know where to find these or a list of these? Spanks.

I would tell you, but I am bummed that the KING OF BUFFETS did not respond to my thread.
Actually, I have no idea, but I still hoped to get your "Professional" opinion in the buffet thread.

BTW, if you are already a book club member, they will have any offers geared for you coded to your account.
So a quick call to CS will answer your questions...
If you are a new member, the best I could find through Google was 6 books for a buck plus S/H.

I heard we have a Book Forum here. Not sure if people post in it or anything, but I'll go ahead and move this thread there... maybe it'll draw someone out of hiding.

I got a mail offer yesterday as well and by the misspelling of my last name, they could only have gotten my address through Columbia House.
Anyway the code for 5 free bokks + an extra free book or "White curve radio" is CR008 and the web address is http://www.JoinSFBC.com

Yeah, they are a good deal if you like to read. I can pick up 6 Star Trek books for about $10 (usually 3-in-1 books, etc. that are exclusive to the club) and all I have to do is buy 2 more that are still cheaper than most book stores.

I think I might have to pass right now, with 6 books on the way from Amazon and another $90 in gift certificates, I won't need any books for another month or so. and then I will be just trying to find something new to read...

Yeah, well they're owned by one company, booksonline.com, so they're almost exactly the same. I tried to look up the membership agreement for the SFBC and this is what I got:
"Begin by selecting your 0 books for $.0 . You will be billed (including $0.0 shipping and handling) when your membership has been approved. Plus, with this special membership, there's no commitment to buy any books!
...
Reduce your Commitment NOW
Select an additional book now for just $0.0 (plus shipping and handling), and reduce your commitment to only -1 more books over the next 0 years!"
I have no idea what that means.

New Member: Choose 4 books for $1 each with membership. There's no obligation to buy another book. Please enroll me as a member of QPBC and send me the 4 books I've indicated below. Bill me $1 each, plus shipping and handling. I understand that I am not required to buy another book and that I may cancel at any time. You'll send me the QPB Review for at least 6 months.
I suppose there's a code for this, but all I have is this mailing. I'll send you one if you want.
