[quote name='CrashSpyro123'][quote name='CrashSpyro123']My first post here and it's a great value!

Game Developer

www.gdmag.com/freeyear

Came with an insert in my new issue, it's a $71.40 value. You just have to answer some questions and answer them to the best of your knowledge. Great mag for the aspiring game designer/programmer.[/quote]

Just bumping this up since it'll be active for a while.[/quote]

Bumping it again since it's still free.
 
If anyone sees any Dell crossword type magazines that would be great [-o<

I am addicted to this thread, keep up the great work! :applause:
 
Here is a really good one:

http://www.americannewsstand.com/aavacure1.htm

They offer a bonus free subscription for ordering a magazine $50.00 or less but they don't actually seem to require you to order anything! Just choose the free magazine you want from the drop down menu which includes some good ones including Popular Science. Not only that but you can repeat the process to get a different magazine! :)

Yep, I'll be crossing my fingers that they show up in the mail :)
 
You'd have to contact EGM directly. However, there is no point in contacting them right after signing up for the deal, since your added sub usually doesn't get into their database until a couple weeks later. Once you see this sub added to your current (or you see your name in their DB if you're a new subscriber), THEN contact them.

not really a post well sort off


All people living in fort wayne get ahold of this

Sunday only paper was 1.75 then 6 months back you got the Saturday and sunday for 1.75 Well opened up the door today and now you get FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY and LIFE MAG for 1.75 a week

somethings up at our paper plant 2 free days a week and a free MAG (First free mag starts oct 1 ,,, I think Life is monthly right?)

[/quote]


You sure the magazine is free, because all it says it the free pin.[/quote]


Yes the Mag is free I already filled out for it, I think you may only get one issue though.[/quote]

Careful with that one. It sounds like they will eventually bill you if you don't cancel your trial membership.

The fine print:

YOUR SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED
You agree to preview the Club for 30 days with access to all benefits described. At the end of your FREE trial, you can extend your membership in the Club for a full two years for just $24 or simply write "cancel" on the dues notice and send it back. If you're unhappy with the Club at any time during your first year as a Charter Member, just let us know. Upon your request, you'll receive a full 100% refund of your entire year's membership dues. You take absolutely no risk, ever! This offer is valid for U.S. residents only. 84% of each year's dues is for one year of The History Channel Magazine.

The History Channel Club and The History Channel Magazine are administered and published by North American Membership Group, Inc. (NAMG), under license from The History Channel and A&E Television Networks. NAMG is responsible for issuing refunds in accordance with Club policies and answering any questions about the Club.

That;'s true, but at least it's an invoice and not an automatic credit card bill [I hate those.] many magazines offer 1-4 issues free, just write Cancel on the invoice and send it back if you dont want to continue.

I feel the same, I never give credit card info to these companies. Writing cancel on an invoice is no big deal to me though.

bad thing is though i think this can hurt your credit score cause they could say your refusing to pay for mags

Not if you cancel it.
 
careful- credit ratings still occupy a shady nether region of the financial world- well maybe the more accurate mixed metaphor is when in rome-
by that i mean, all kinds of crazy crap can be put onto your credit report without really knowing unless you check it out (some states allow you to get free ones ad-aware style) which is highly recommended

i suggest when signing up to be someone who does not exist
 
they could say you never cancelled. there used to be a place that you got music videos for 4.99 a month I cancelled but i was sued for 120 bucks cause they said i never cancelled even though i put return to sender on all of them,.

i had to take them to court and win to stop it
 
It's better not to post those one-issue trials at all, because it's just not worth sending it back with CANCEL written on it. If someone here forgets to, they'll start blaming you for not posting the fine print, as if it's your fault.

Just caution.
 
[quote name='goergegavin']Hey, does anybody know where you can get GMR magazine for free?[/quote]

Not likely to be found . . . ebgames exclusive. I don't even see subscription discounts on it :(

It's a bummer, mine's up soon and giving up $10 of credit to keep it going is not very appealing . . . but I read them all.

Actually, the GMR subsciption is now $14.99 for a full year

EGGAMES also has a way of getting magazines for free in their stores.
All you do is pay with a credit card and they give you two months of any tow mags for free. You then call an 800# and tell them you only want the 2 issues of the 2 mags, and they cancel you right away. I did it and it took all of 3 minutes. And the best part is, is that every two months you can do this, over, and over, and over!
 
Got the premier issue of "Giant" today . . . free year is 4 issues.

Anybody else get it?

I must have found about it here . . . kind of fun mag. Very short attention span articles. But a good piece on Talking Heads.
 
slidecage: in referance to the fort wayne newspapers its probably a bait and switch to where they will eventually raise the sunday only subscription to 2.25 or so and than make the weekly like 2.50 or 2.75. for only 25-50 cents more you can get the whole week and from an advertising standpoint that will be more subscriptions thus allowing and demanding higher advertising fees meaning more profits for the journal and sentinal.

Bleh. I just called them and told them i get the sunday for the coupons only and I would be willing to pay 1.00 a week for the sunday only and they said ok. I pay 52 a year and because of what they are doing i get fri and sat too.

Bleh just letting you know so you dont have to pay so much for it.



thank you all for all for all these magazine subsciption posts. I am almost getting more than I can read. hehe.

they have said down there they dont plan on jacking up the price of the paper. It would be nice if they would jack it up so the people who deliver the paper (like me) can get a raise. I mean they are giving out all this free stuff and yet they refuse to give us a raise. It was an easy job when gas was 1.00 but when its this high, spending 200+ a month in gas is no fun.

[quote name='dnt_h8me2']i signed up for lots of mags, but none have come yet. :cry:
oh well. last year was a good mag year for me. all thanks to CAG[/quote]

Depending on the publishing cycle, it can take up to 8-12 weeks [or more] to be added to the sub list and start getting issues. Mine usually haven't taken that long, but it can happen.

Some of the ones I signed up for in the past were 'new release' magazines, building up sub lists before the mag even came out. It never came out.

Lot's of times I've completely forgotten about signing up by the time the mags start.
 
Would someone please post the links to those different cupport pages so I can see if my account is activated or not? It's in this thread somewhere but the page count is like 66 now so it's hard to look back. Preferably EGM and CGW cuz I'd like to switch to print format. Thanks.
