can I let you in on a little secret?

You don't have to deal with email guys that will spam your inbox.

Every publication has an ABC audit statement. On these statments they outline circulation distribution (for the advertisiers)

You will note that all magazines have paid/unpaid circulation going to various sources. Some is newsstand. Some is full price subscription, some is discounted subscription and then you have....


FREE REQUESTED COPIES!!!!

Thats right! All you have to do is write a letter to the publisher/circulation dept asking for a free subscription. People do it all the time.

Why? Because those copies still count towards circulation which the advertisers pay for. Now you still get junk mail, but the snail mail kind that you get with any mag subscription.

Did anybody sign up for any of these mags and if so, did you get any yet. I signed up for a couple of them and nothing yet. They said 6-8 weeks and its been 10.

It depends on the magazine...some take a while, some are quick about it.

I got a free subscription through a service sort of like this, and it also said 6-8 weeks but Im pretty sure it took longer than that. I did start getting the mag tho.

is just the first trial issue free, or all 24 issues? How is it that they can send you 2 years free. Is there anyway they bill you later? Where does it say it is 100% free? I am worried to submit my info... (even with a fake email addy)
thanks, Shane
