    I signed up for the Red offer of 3 months a little while back and have just had my last lot through the post.

    Could I now sign up for the new offer to take advantage of the free gift or can you only do it once every so often?

    Seems a bit cheeky to me but hey!

    Have signed up for it for my friend (genuinely!) but quite fancy it for myself!

    I know that Zest have a rule of one gift per year and they were pulling people up on it early last year, but I've not heard anything to suggest Red had the same policy.

    I suppose you can always try.....or maybe subscribe by ringing them as it may flag up that you can't have the gift (and then you won't waste your time/money).

    Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."

    I've currently got two subs to Red on the go!! isigned up for the Liz earle offer but must have got it on another offer too - can't remeber what though - mybe through quidco or something. I've had it in the past too - I think that was Liz earle offer. I didn't do this deliberately - I'm hoping it is just a month that overlaps. I'm just giving one away

    Is anyone still waiting for their Avon anew gift from the she subscription?

    I did the sub in June but still not received and when I rang she said it can take up to 6 weeks which by my reckoning is already up!
    Stopped smoking Jan 2007 after 23 years!
    Cigarettes NOT smoked = 240,945
    Smoke free days = 11 Years :T
    Cash saved so far = £125,45,11

    I signed up to the Red offer only about a week ago - the offer with the free Origins body care products - and received it today. It smells just lovely! I am very happy bunny!

    Thanks again to OP.

    I just checked and it's still available on the website (3 issues for £3 plus gift)

    Stand in tesco looking at the mags that interest you. Most contain a flyer with an offer if you subscribe (you know, the leaflets that are usually lying on the ground as they fall out of the magazines). Well I let the leaflets fall into my shopping trolley & I can than take them home (& keeping the store floor clean at the same time!!)

    I'll shortly be posting lots of new offers on the offers board....

    I just signed up to Red also for the origins gift as i sprayed it in John lewis on Sunday and just love it, but, as i already have a red subscription going, wo which i have cancelled the direct debit to, i thought i would start the trial in January, so do tyou think this means i wont get the Origins gift until January, if at all? Or do you think I may not get the dift anyway as i subscribed to the magazine only last month????

    Help, Help, im scared to email them and ask them as they may realise that ive only recently subscribed to them.

    I start the sub straight away now - as when I have sub with a later start date, i've not got gift - I think they allocate them on start date order - although may be imagining this. If they notice, they notice - they could notice in Jan too.

    Just found a really good offer for a gym kit with health & fitness magazine. Code won't work on website as it is just a very new offer.

    Decided to phone it in instead. When the gentleman typed in my details, he received a message popping up saying "as you have subscribed to a number of our publications over the year from this address, you have reached the limit for the amount of subscriptions you can apply for by phone. Please re-apply using the postal address".

    I think they are on to us! The man said that he has been working there for a few years & this is the first time he has seen this message.

    I will try applying by website again next week. If that doesn't accept me, I'll just have to use my parents address!!


    On another note, I noticed that this subscription states it is for a minimum term of 12 months. But it also states "If at any time during the first 60 days you are dissatisfied in any way, please notify us in writing & we will refund you for all unmailed issues.

    Another loophole methinks!!

    I recently subscribed to the Red offer for my friend and have today received the Origins free gift set delivered to me and not her.

    Would this normally happen does anyone know?

    She lives miles away and I wanted her to have it (cheap birthday present!). I'll either now have to post it on or wait til I next see her (probably Christmas).

    I would have thought the subscription and the free gift would go to the same address?:mad:
