- Really? So why does ASUCLA charge full retail (or more) price in the bookstore
- if not to make a profit? If this is the non-profit, 'students helping students'
- operation it claims to be, who needs enemies? Personally, I now buy all my
- books at OPAMP for less. I quit using the Bruin Gold Card since it's deposit
- bonus dropped from 7% to 1%. Book bonus? What's that? Looks to me like ASUCLA
- is succeeding only in driving customers away. Hey, maybe you can sell the Daily
- Bruin for 25 cents/issue. Yeah, that's the thing to do nowadays, isn't it?
