How do I change the URL of an expired dynamic QR code from QRFY without paying a huge annual subscription fee? Hello, I have recently purchased 150 leaflets and 100 business cards for a small not-for-profile LGBTQ+ organisation. I created a free dynamic QR code from QRFY, but I’ve been told that it’s only valid for seven days and thus it will no longer wait until I pay an extortionate fee per year to use their website.

( www.mcsweeneys.net )

How to Ensure Your Annual Beach Vacation Destroys Your Relationship with Your Extended Family 1. Rent one big house together.
