Default Buying magazine subscriptions online?

Where are your favorite places to buy magazine subscriptions online? My mom has requested an subscription to "In Style" for her b-day. I'm wondering where I can get the best price without getting scammed or having it take ages for her to get the first issue. thanks!

try ebates, they have several different listings and very good prices and you get refunded some of the purchase price

I have used Discount Magazines at BudgetMags.com many times to get good priced magazine. Unfortunately, I do not see the one you want offered. I posted the link though in case you or others need something different.

Default Value mags

Hi, I use valuemags.com since last year. I use ebates to link to valuemags to get the initial rebate.

While they might not offer all the magazine subscription in the world, they have a no automatically renewal policy so it works very well for my gift subscription.

Last year, I subscribed several gift subscription for the holiday and so far, it has worked wonder for me.

I am not up to the renewal period yet but I hoped they will keep their word on no-automatically renewal. I hate that kind of surprised, especially when I paid for with my ATM card.

Thanks for the tips! I ended up going through ValueMags via eBates. ValueMags price was the same offered directly by the magazine, but by going through eBates I saved 25%!
