Question How do you pay for POTCO?

I pay month to month but am seriously considering going six months when it's time for my membership to roll over.

I just pay yearly. I figure i'm gonna be playing for a while, and if it is gonna be that long, then that is the best price.

I use a game card from target or best buy. You get 3 months for about 25 instead of 30

Assuming I'm actually paying for the game - which I'm not at the moment - I use game cards. It's easier for me to spend $25 every three months than throw out $80 at one time. Plus it allows me to just let it run out if the game gets super boring...which it has.

Does he know he's paying?

I personnally buy the cards so I don't risk card theft.

My parents pay for this month by month.

I used to use game cards, but we came to find out it was too much work. They say as long as I keep my grades up they will keep paying for it.

Not to make you guys feel annoyed, but if you buy 4 Game Cards ( a year's worth of payment ), your gonna use up $100 dollars a year if each card has 3 months for $25.
A whole year BOUGHT is $80, $20 less than 4 game cards. If your not really paying for this many game cards, don't worry about it, this probably won't apply to you.
I'm just giving a friendly adviser.
P.S. I pay year by year.

True, but people are probably aware. As Jason said, he buys a few, then he uses them as needed. If your paying $80 for an entire year, but you don't end up playing much, its a waste. If you spend $100 for 4 game cards, 3 months each, you are able to switch to basic when the game is getting slower, then use a card. In other words, through the use of a card, you aren't limited to that one year time, instead you can use it whenever.

I use game cards. That way, I can just pay cash for 'em and I don't have to work all of the deductions in my checkbook and whatnot. Works good for me.
