The Fruit of Labor

The New Nana Mizuki album
If you didn’t know, I run an anime blog that originally was a personal blog. Since now that site has a dedicated audience, I’m also running some ads (I stuffed some google ads and some text link ads on the footer) and affiliated with one store that I shop often–CD Japan. If people click and buy with my affiliate links to CD Japan, I get a commission (like 5-9%, depends on volume) which can be cashed out via Paypal (they pay in yen…which is good these days) or as store credit. I vouched for the latter.
Because as you all know how the economy is globally, retailers are pushing hard to get rid of wares. CD Japan is not really the cheapest place on the block for importing Japanese CDs, but they are one of the more reliable and well-serviced alternative if English is your preferred language. To compete on price, they offer a lot of random coupon things, a point program (1-5% of your purchase turns into points, and my affiliate credits are treated as points), and on top of your usual clearance and %-offs (rare as they are), they are also sales tax-free for their exports unlike most other places.
Enough about writing on ads. I am just a little happy about preording a $40 import and getting it for free effectively. Just had to pay shipping and some change.
