Magazine Subscriptions - Deceptive Sales Tactics -Nationwide

Magazine subscriptions can save you lots of money off the cover price. What you have to be aware of is that many magazine companies, or companies representing the magazines, will continue to send great offers through out the year offering great renewal deals such as two years for the price of one (ect). This is to hopefully catch people who have no idea when their subscription expires to renew and get a great deal.

Only problem. Before you know it, like I fell for with one magazine, you'll be a paid subscriber through 2012. I finally found out that the expiration date of your subscription is posted somewhere on the bill, but most people don't see that and think it's time to renew again, which is easy to overlook if you subscribe to several magazines, and every time you renew you're adding years to your already active subscription.
