Shop `Til You Drop!!
CompuServe Electronic Mall is Free of Charge...Again!

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 21, 1995 -- CompuServe, the world's most successful
online service, is once again the only major online service to offer free
access to its shopping area. Beginning Monday, Sept. 25, CompuServe will
return its award-winning Electronic Mall to the list of services it offers
absolutely free of charge. This means that CompuServe members shopping in
the Mall will not even be charged for their connect time.

This move is being made in response to member feedback concerning the
Electronic Mall and its status under the recently reduced CompuServe
pricing structure.

"CompuServe prides itself on listening to its members, and that's exactly
what we have done here," said Keith Arnold, manager of the Electronic
Mall. "It was important to our members that using the Electronic Mall be
just like roaming through a real mall. That means browsing, bargain
hunting and window shopping for free. By making it a completely free area,
we are responding to our customers' needs."

The new pricing structure adopted on Sept. 10, 1995 provides members with
five hours of connect time each month for a $9.95 membership fee.
Additional hours are billed at $2.95/hour. With the new Mall policy, time
spent in the Electronic Mall will not count against the five free hours,
nor will the $2.95/hour fee apply.
