    4 x $8.06 = $32.24

    i.e. it is cheaper to buy 4 one year subscriptions.
    I was wondering who was going to catch that.

      That jab aside, I know what your trying to say but I doubt they're going to let you use the 1 year price for four consecutive years. Heck, I would do it for 20 years then.

      They absolutely will. I've done it before (and again for this deal). Publishers will usually automatically adjust the subscription end date. If not you just give them a call and it will be taken care of. You are simply ordering to renew your subscription for an additional one year 4 times. You never have to wait until the end of your subscription to renew for another year.

        Got my first magazine a few days ago. It has some good content. Worth $8 for a year IMO.

          One thing publishers do that REALLY annoys me, send those fake "your subscription is about to expire, please renew" notices, when the magazine shows you have two more of three years left, on the label.

          They are hoping you renew at the higher price, then they actually offer closer to when your subscription ACTUALLY expires.

          Sorry, just needed to vent (father was going to renew his and my magazine subscription that I gifted to him).
