I called the 1-800 number - was told I HAD to have the code number off the card - anybodys card - doesn't matter whose card or code # - can somebody post their code number off their card so any of us can get this fantastic offer? Thank you!
|
try again. what the heck - it's an 800 #, right? i think it depends on who answers the phone. the first time i called, they said no. the second time, they said yes. go figure.

I too would like to know if you could order only one subscription of a quilting magazine what would you get? at our quilt guild they offered F&P at a really cheap price but I was not real impressed with the magazine. I log my quilt patterns that I buy on an excel spread sheet. I also do this with my stamps and scrapbooking supplies (punchess, etc) I'm trying to get my daughter to list all the books she received at her baby shower in excel. Am I obsessed or what?
|
super organized wow !
|
until now what i always did was i sent myself an email and on the reference line i typed "Quiltmaker J/F 2010". that told me that Quiltmaker mag expired with the january/february issue of 2010. since it appeared on the topic line, i never had to open it. when it came through to my inbox i automatically put it into a folder called subscriptions. to see everything at once, i just had to click on the folder called subscriptions and everything came up in a column. i could check and see what was coming due without ever opening an email (which was empty anyway).
|
I like records, some anyway. For my car and my hubby's rig, we keep log books of when we gas up. It's set up as: date, where, cost per gal, how many gals, the mileage, the short mileage to keep track of the tankful, and we've been doing this for 37+ years. I was keeping a log book when I was in my early 20's. And no I wasn't driving a model T., should anyone ask. we also record oil changes, etc. also when new tires go on and snow tires go off. It's nice to look at this from time to time. Even our pantry has a record keeping system or sorts. So I think it's great to keep record of quilting and sewing and the things related to it.
|
I got one and send my subscription in 2 days ago. Looks like it will be a good one. Also renewed Fons and Porter. No I just need to find the time and money to make all the quilts I want to make!!
|
I didnt get anything in the mail either.....how can I get into this? It sounds like a good one, and a really good price too..... do they have a website?
|
I didn't know you could extend your subscription on a special rate for more then one year...gonna try that one. I got the card in the mail too, and jumped on it. I have subscribed to Fons and Porter, so I get the Easy Quilts magazine too when I joined Quilters Club, but also McCalls, love that one, and Better Homes and Gardens Quilt mag. I would love to get them all, but can't do it. I just keep going through them over and over and pretend they are new ones..teehee...

http://www.openoffice.org/ I have used this myself and find that it does much of what MS Office does and in my opinion some of it even better. They company is trustworthy and have been around for several years. Lots of "techies" use it instead of Microsoft products. Give it a try if you are in need of it. :thumbup: Brenda E |

Sorry I went to look in my recycling to see if I could find the ad, but couldn't locate it. Anyone else out there have the web site address? :cry:
|
If you call the 1-800-866-2886 customer service number and tell them you belong to a quilt group online and were told by others that they had rcvd that offer,they will give it to you if you ask,I just did that and they are billing me. Took about 30 seconds! :P Good Luck :D Gail :shock:

it seems as though they haven't got their act together. also, when i asked, they allowed me to extend it to 3 years at the same price. who knows what they're doing? |
THANKS, will try tomorrow, J J

I mentioned this conversation to my DH and he got up and came back with the envelope, "this one?" he asks.
I have stopped subscribing to anymgazines so he just put it in the recycle, I never saw it. Now it is ready for the mail:) Thank you for bring this to our attention. |

it's better than the newstand price, but no give-away like the $10. |

Has anyone noticed a lot of these great subscriptions deals come with an "automatic renewal" clause. If you don't want it to continue then you have to cancel.
|
Yes! In the past I have gone a round or two with a company that sent me a magazine which I did subscribe to and after receiving only couple issues then sent me a letter informing me my subscription would be renewed automatically at a much higher rate which was $30+ a year. I hadn't even received the magazine for a year yet, only couple months. That's when the fun began with them. Really got to watch some of these outfits. Just like some will gave you a great deal but it's really for only 4 or 8 magazines and not for the full year. And some book clubs, "sorry we didn't receive your cancel in time, the book is on it's way to your house". So that is my gripe on that issue.
|
My MIL got me a subscription for my Xmas present! My first quilting magazine. She even got the house address for where I'm moving next month so the magazine will be sent there
|
I called the 800# and the gal told me that I could have it for 1 year for $10.00 OR that I could have it for 2 years for $24.95....you are right, they dont know what they are doing, but the price is SO nice...hope its as good as it sounds.She did ask me for my credit card info when I called. I sure hope its a ligitamate group......thanks for telling us about this.......

I have stopped some of mine that you mention, but I really love the one called Quiltmaker. Fast and easy and good tips. Check it out at the news stand.
