Was on the NYT site recently when I stumbled on this digital sale: 60% off yearly digital subscriptions.
The basic package gets you full access to the site / app for $1.60 AUD a week, or $6.40 a month. Down from $4/ week.
There is also an all access package for $2.70 a week (extra podcasts, behind the scenes content, etc)
And finally there's an all access plus package for $3.80 a week with two bonus subscriptions you can give to whoever (could make a good cheap Xmas gift)
Cancel at any time, and changes to regular pricing after 12 months.
I've been on the hunt for a new paper for a while now, so I've decided to give the basic package a try. App experience so far is pretty good, content is compelling (if not a little US-centric obviously), as are the morning brief emails and recipe pages.
