I renewed my KCRW membership today with a $50 pledge plus $25 for their music library. I was holding out for a good premium (like a magazine subscription) and a chance to win an Apple MacBook. Today they offered the MacBook as the daily giveaway, but no good premiums came up, so at the end of "Morning Becomes Eclectic" I said the hell with it and pledged anyway. I went for the t-shirt as a premium and was going to be happy with it. Then near the end of the phone call, my volunteer asked if I wanted a Newsweek subscription as well--the very thing I had been waiting for all morning. So, with my $75, I have a subscription to Newsweek, an American Apparel KCRW shirt, and a Fringe Benefits card. Hopefully I'll also have a new MacBook. I've been a member of KCRW for a few years now, and I think I've earned my money back just from the fringe benefit savings and concert tickets that I've won. Score!
