🤝 You know the deal (it's almost over, btw)

I need to sell more subscriptions to keep Fingers afloat. Can I count on you?

Welcome back from the holiday weekend, Fingers Fam! I know you’re busy digging out of an inbox full of horrors, so I’ll make this quick. I need to sell more subscriptions to continue publishing Fingers. Please consider buying one on sale to help me do that:

As of this morning, 262 Friends of Fingers have already stepped up to financially support this independent coverage and commentary about drinking in America, which is amazing! I need at least 275 paid subscribers by the end of May to hit my monthly target and stay on track towards achieving a minimum sustainable income from this project by September 2022. To avoid falling behind, I need 13 more readers to buy subscriptions by the end of the day today. If you value my work, please consider becoming one of them:

With this sale, subscriptions work out to under $6/month. If that seems like a good deal to you, please take it! Many of the readers who open the boozeletter the most are also the ones that don’t pay for it yet. I get it: there are a lot of newsletters out there! I depend on reader support to underwrite the work, time, and expertise that go into every edition. If you’ve been meaning to buy a Fingers subscription, and just haven’t gotten around to it yet, I’m hoping this reminder will be the nudge you need to reach for your wallet.

Hope to see you on the other side of the paywall. Thanks for reading!—Dave.

P.S.: Friday’s discussion thread about drinking game nomenclature was a lot of fun, thanks to everyone who participated. Paying Friends of Fingers get commenting privileges on every story and thread I publish—yet another reason to pony up.

P.P.S.: Don’t forget to follow Fingers on Instagram for daily shitposts about drinking culture, being online, and beyond.
