This has been less before, on multiple occasions. Why would anyone want to pay this much, with this being the most expensive subscription of all the ones you may already be getting?

Erroneous. The cheapest this is ever been is $45 (so $3 less than this). This price (and higher at $51/year) continually makes the Front Page and is a good deal for those who want The Economist.

So, what's erroneous?

I last renewed The Economist with a SD offer in 9/2018 that was $.13 more expensive. So, adding a year under this deal is attractive.

btw, the offer code presented did work.

Always check CB and points sites when doing magazine subscriptions
Not allowed to link to specifics, but usually strong kickbacks

It's a good deal for a well written magazine. Plus you can lock in at the same price from this company so that it automatically renews. Definitely worth it.

Tempted to get one to read about the apocalypse that is scheduled for November 3rd up until that day and then for 7-8 more issues about how wrong Americans were after that

This is a solid deal at this price, but as a suggestion you might want to check whether your local library has a digital subscription available for patrons.

Mine allows for downloading current and back issues for this and a number of other magazines.

Great magazine, but I just can't keep up. It's not an easy/quick read and it being weekly makes it difficult...but if you can manage to read it it's well written. This is a standard/good price for this on SD, though I would consider the print+digital option so you can get the app (which has audio versions of all issues)
