I received a $8.25 check in the mail today. Very nice but I was unaware that I was supposed to get one. It looks like a regular check.

However, when I looked at the small print on the front of it, I noticed it read, “By cashing or depositing this check you are purchasing a membership in Great Fun.”

To find out what that Great Fun meant, I looked on the backside of the check. Once more in small print, it read “When you cash or deposit the enclosed check, we will automatically charge the $149.99 annual fee.”
