Magazines featured here on Discount Fanatics

As I find great deals on magazines, I will feature them here on this site for you. Other than the ones mentioned below, there is a section of limited-time Current Magazine Specials shown in the right column of this website. I also list free magazine offers in the daily Freebies and Deals blog when they become available.  

They offer great prices on magazines and no subscription auto renewals.

DiscountMags.com

Major titles of magazines at discount prices, with no automatic renewals.

It might not be the first place you would think of for Magazine Subscriptions, but they actually have some pretty good prices. If you can't locate a magazine that you want at one of the sources that I mentioned above, you might want to check them out. They actually have some great $5 and $10 deals.

AUTO RENEWALS

Be sure to check to see if your subscription automatically signs you up for auto-renewal. Sometimes, if you're getting a really great rate on a magazine, this will be one of the conditions of the offer. Don't make it a stop-gap to your deal though. All you need to do is make certain that you put a self-reminder in place, so that you can cancel your subscription around 1 month before the subscription ends (unless you wish to renew). You can place the reminder on a computer calendar (like Microsoft Outlook) that will pop-up and remind you, or a desk calendar (if you view it often), or on a sticky note on the Garage door where you exit each day. Place the reminder in the slot with your bills or wherever you keep your Birthday/Anniversary reminders. Just be certain to do it the VERY DAY THAT YOU SUBSCRIBE or you may forget!

Renewal Offers in the Mail

After subscribing, you will receive renewal offers or requests in the mail. Now, if you paid a discounted rate for your first subscription and the renewal rate matches or is lower than the first rate you paid, then renew if you like the magazine or publication. Be sure to shred or tear up all offers that you don’t accept. Don’t just toss them in the trash. And be leery of counterfeit renewal offers - these are offers that didn't come from the initial publishing house that you signed up with. Sometimes counterfeiters will send in renewal offers hoping that you don't know the expiration date of your subscription, and they'll get you to subscribe again. This little trick was recently in the media. You'll find yourself paying for the same magazine twice, because you accidentally renewed with one of those counterfeiters that snuck in the back door, and your original subscription doesn't even expire for 6 months. Now you've got two of the same magazine coming each month. Yipes! Here's how to avoid these scammers. You can always look at your last issue of a magazine to see when your subscription expires. Most all subscription expiration dates are listed just above your name on the label.
