I just tried to get my PS+ games for the month and apparently my Plus had expired - who knew!? Maybe I should use it every so often.
Anyway, back to $29.29, just got a new year. It failed the first time when I used a credit card so I did it again using PayPal and it seemed to work.
Edit: OK, so somehow I entered my code and it is now good till 9/17/2023. WTF!? It definitely said I had no subscriptions when I was on there before I entered the code. So either I still had nearly 2 years left or the code did something wacky.
Now I'm thinking it may have been one of those BS browser moments where it had cached my PSN name but I really wasn't logged in so it was asking me to join PS+, but I really had it already. No big deal - now I'm good for 3 years
