Yeah, it's been a while. I stop by and read some stuff now and then. I started a new job and I've been very busy. :D

Signed up a few days back from another forum, and the people who signed up a while back have been getting their zines already. And this is also supposed to add to your existing subscription if you have one already with any of these zines.

how well does this work? do you actually get your subscriptions? Did it cause you to get a bunch of spam(e-mail and snail mail)?

My guess is that YES, we'll see spam from this. I like every1 else that signs up for things like this have a "spam email addy" and use that for promotions such as this. But I've never heard any1 mention that their snail mail spam got heavier from this. I'm sure it happens to some people, but probably not as much as plain ol' email spam.
I used magazinevalues.com a few times. They require you receive offers through email in order for you to take advantage of their magazine prices, but have never noticed a difference in the volume of spam. So maybe my confidence is foolish, but if I'm going to get 5 good zines from this, I can deal with some more spam on my spam email acct.

LOL, did anyone click on the tiny "terms of use" link under the ad?
http://www.freetries.com/magazine/magterms.html
Instead of burying the real terms in 3 pages of legal mumbo jumbo: These are 100% free subscriptions, at no point will anyone ask you for any money during registration or any other time during your 1 year subscriptions, it is 100% free. We reserve the right to substitute free items if the ones you have chosen become unavailable. Magazine subscriptions take 4 to 12 weeks to begin. The issues do not contain CD's they are just magazines and they are free. We reserve the right to change the terms of this free offer any time for any reason. If you signup more than once your original registration will be canceled, if you try and cheat we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law with no mercy. Your name and address will not be use for anything but the magazine subscription, we reserve the right to email you about future free offers if we ever have any. If you don't agree with these terms, please don't signup.
Those are my kind of terms ;)

I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but I've started getting my subscriptions (saw this offer about 6 weeks ago somewhere else...) and they are coming in the mail all cut up and battered, like they've been read by 5 people or something. Maybe it's just my mail carrier, but geez I'd like my mags in a halfway decent condition.

Ok here is a sad thought. I have signed up for so many of these free magazine things, that I get one magazine a day. I am being serious too. I may just turn my house into a magazine store :). Its great getting so many free comp magazines though. Better than spending $5 on them.
