Answer: To become a member of  The BFD.

The BFD’s MOST popular membership level is Silver.

However, our Bronze level membership is the lifeblood of The BFD. We really could not exist if it weren’t for Bronze level members who pay us $10 a month.

That is ONLY $2.50 a week or 36 cents a day.

Chicken feed to you but all our basic running costs to us.

shocked oh my god GIF
Only36 cents a day? That’s chicken feed.

A Bronze membership will give you ad-free access to all our free articles and access to all our puzzles, Sudoku, Crossword and Codecracker but wait there’s more…

Bronze level access also gives you access to SonovaMin’s fantastic political cartoons PLUS BoomSlang’s fantastic political cartoons.

Our Silver level members fund our Insight writers which is why only Silver level memberships and above have access to Insight politics articles.

Silver level subscribers pay us $25 a month.

That is ONLY $6.25 a week or 89 cents a day which is not even the cost of your daily coffee which you are often in danger of spitting all over the screen when reading one of our many entertaining articles.
