Cooking Club of America & National Home Gardening Club Ripped-off Twice by Two Companys with the same V.P. of Account Services, John Wilson Minnetonka Minnesota

Back in July or 1996, I joined the National Home Gardening Club, because they promised I would get their magazine for life and I also got a few gardening tools for joining.  Since I enjoy gardening, I thought I would enjoy the magazine.  Well I got the magazine for a few years and without me noticing, it just didn't come anymore, and I forgot all about it. 

Then in May of 2013, I paid $24.00 for 24 issues of Cooking Club of America's magazine.  I was soon offered a lifetime membership for $325.00, and I would get the magazine for life plus a set of cookware and a few other kitchen things and I would be able to test some products and keep them.  Since I like to cook, it sounded like a pretty good deal.  Well the same thing happened.   

Once I had made the final payment, I stopped receiving the magazine and all communication with the company stopped.  In looking at both companys, I discovered that John Wilson is the VP of Account Services of BOTH companys.  Betsy Wray is the Executive Director of Cooking Club of America, and I don't remember who was the Executive Director of National Home Gardeneing Club.

I think this should be looked into by the Attorney General of Minnesota.  This is such a scam and I wonder with how many other companies, they are doing the same thing.

It is kinda tough to be made a fool of twice.
