My membership to Daz expired in December, and due to their new memberships schemes i decided not to continue, as i prefer a yearly subscriptions, which last years i picked up on the cheap.

Am i in a minority who think like this?

Just curious, don't want mud slinging.

I think the popular option is to pick up a month here and a month there of Premier for the big sales with the best offers. There is no point to touching Daz+ any more - You're basically paying triple for the same old benefit - Weekly freebie, monthly freebie, 2 coupons. The incidental discounts are notably less than for premier - Premier ate Daz+'s lunch on promotions. Sometimes, Premier get exclusive offers - Daz+ gets nothing. So, bye-bye Daz+.

Anyway, The idea is to start a Premier sub at least a week into a new month when you've had no Premier sub. 10 days or more might be better. I had Daz+ until December 18 and got Premier on the Pays-4-Itself promo a few days later. That was awesome! After you have the subscription, wait a few days or longer and cancel it. It will then run for the remainder of 30 days. This way, you get 2 sets of coupons and 2 free character bundles.

Do this during a big sale when you can get a lot for your money, especially with the improved rate of token collection (especially on Mondays and Tuesdays). It's all win-win. If you can get a good % off on gift cards, that's gravy. The only other point to note is, the $10 off $25 PA coupon gives a slightly better discount while expecting you to spend a few dollars more - Again, totally worth it during a big sale. I plan to buy another month at March Madness. We'll see how that goes.

No, I didnt renew my membership. The new prices are just insane :( Maybe I will renew for a month or two in the end of the year, but for me there is no reason anymore.

Mine expired at the end of the year. Not paying the current membership prices. Without the membership I'm not paying the shop prices. Also don't like them hiding software features behind a sub. Might get a month for the PA sale. I have the feeling that they're trying to squeeze as much as possible out of a shrinking customer base.

I can't help but think this must be hurting Daz, i see a lot of people saying the same thing, but no one yet has said they love the Premier... although there must be someone.

Will be interesting to find out what the profit margin is compared to the previous years, when premier reaches a year old.
