One Year of Weight Watchers Magazine (6 issues) is $14.95
So that comes to $2.49 an issue.
But today Tanga has the year subscription for only $3.99! (Use the Discount Code 'WEIGHT' at checkout and their $14.99 price will subtract $11 and leave you with a total of $3.99 )
So that comes to less than $0.67 an issue!
AND now with my new ebates knowledge, I will be earning back 2.5% of that order.
Sure, that only earns me about a dime. ($0.09975 to be exact) But free money is free money.
So $3.89 makes each issue less than $0.65 each!
And now I just have to sit and play the waiting game.
I cannot wait to start receiving my insanely cheap magazines for All You & Weight Watchers, but I think that they are going to take around 2 months before I receive the first magazine. And since Weight Watchers is only 6 issues, maybe it will take even longer.
But I'm pretty excited about those two magazine purchases! :)
Since neither of those two magazines were any of the free ones I could get from My Coke Rewards.

All You Magazine...To Subscribe or Not To Subscribe?
Every Couponing Blog I read constantly mentions how wonderful the magazine All You Magazine is. I had never heard of it before. But apparently each month it has a TON of coupons in it. So many that the magazine pays for itself. I have been hesitant on ordering it, since I am trying to stick with only using coupons that I get for free.
But when you subscribe for the full year, it comes to $1.66 or $1.67 an issue...Or even $1.42 an issue when you buy 2 full years. And if you are going to use the coupons each month to save over $2, then the magazine kind of pays for itself. I presume you would save way over $2/Month with these coupons at least.
So while contemplating whether or not I want to order this magazine, I had an idea. I have been collecting the points off of the caps of Coke products for years on My Coke Rewards. And I normally never know what to cash the points in for, so I usually always just use them to get subscriptions to magazines. Now note the fact that most of these Coke points are never from anything I buy, they are usually ones I take from friends who have purchased a Coke product but are not collecting the rewards points for themselves. Thus resulting in whatever I cash them in for to be absolutely free to me.
Which brings us to the wonderful idea I had. What if I could cash them in for a subscription to All You Magazine? I have enough points to even subscribe to the magazine twice, and get double the amount of coupons for FREE!
Sadly, I just checked MCR's site, and that magazine is not one of the options. :(
I am really disappointed. Because I got really excited thinking about at least getting one year of that magazine and all of the coupons for free.
So the other thing I am wondering is, how much does this magazine cost per issue from a store? Because a lot of websites list the coupons that each month's issues have in it. So I am wondering if I just wait until the list comes out, see if there are any coupons I need, and then go to the store and pay per issue. That way I won't be paying for issues that might not have any coupons in it that I need. But it also depends on how much the magazine will cost. If it seems that there are always good coupons in it, and I end up buying it monthly at the store anyway, then it is probably cheaper in the long run to just order a subscription.
I guess I need to think about this some more...
