COTD. Is It Worth Paying for The Membership?

Hey.
I see a fair few COTD post on here. Is it worth paying a membership for the site?
Do I actually have to sign-up and pay to buy any of the deals?

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Cheers.

    They have deals for non-premium member (Was the name Club Catch? Can't remember). What COTD sell for non Club Catch members tends to be meh-ish, especially after adding in shipping cost and such (as far as I remember, you get free shipping as well for many products if you are a Club Catch member). Though, that doesn't mean you wouldn't be able to find a bargain there.

    That said, they do offer Club Catch trial (I am not sure whether it was 7 days or 30 days) if you really want to grab something from deals for Club Catch members.

      30 days. I signed up to the trial and used the free shipping to my advantage, but didn't really see a lot of things that I wanted.

      • Is this a new deal? I signed up end of Nov and they only gave me 7 days!

        • Not sure, but going from T&C

          'If you do not cancel your trial subscription, after the 30-day trial period we will charge your credit card the subscription fee and you will become a full subscriber of Club Catch."

        • I think it was during the Black Friday, so I assume that they "shortened" the duration to stop people from just getting the Black Friday deals and leaving. Or it might be that they've changed the duration all together.

    All depends on you. Yes there seems to be at least 1 decent Club Catch deal every month, but then you have to spend over $50 to qualify for the free shipping anyway.

    So depends what you want to spend your money on!

    It was great when the minimum spend was $20 for free shipping. At $50, I can't justify it. I used to buy perhaps 7X per month. I haven't bought from them since my first year expired.
