    hi - my sister subscribed for me. I got my first instyle magazine yesterday - with TWO bodyshop eye pencils. Is that right? Is there supposed to be two? If so I'll go and buy more mags! Rubbish mag though!

    What colour pencils did you get? I got Black & French Navy.

    I clicked on to this just after the thread was started, definitely had the option of 6 for £6 then. Decided to have a think about it and now that I've decided to go for it, it looks like the offer has been pulled lol! Oh well ...........

    Its worth subscribing for the gifts, do you get the gifts before the 6 issues, meaning before you cancel, cheers.

    Also how do you find mags with free gifts, is it just from the site or are they sent to you, many thanks.

    They usually send the gift after the first DD is taken and then you cancel.

    It used to be that they sent it out before but a lot of companies caught on. You need to be careful as some specify a minimum 12 month term, although I've been doing it for years and no one has ever chased me.

    In terms of where to find them, it's just knowing where to look. The ones posted above were in this month's Instyle. There are a couple of threads on MSE with magazine offers. You can also go direct to the magazine websites and look:

    e.g.

    Current Vogue offer
    current Tatler Offer
    Current Red offer


    Or there are websites which contain offers e.g. Great magazines. etc.

    Personally I only get them if I can get at least 6 months for £10 and the gift is something I want that is worth over say £30. The key is being patient and picking your offers. Over the years, they have dried up a little (and the problem with the cover gifts not being included any more ruined a lot of subscriptions) but good offers do come up (say £6 for 6 months plus a £30 gift or even better - I've had £60 Decleor gifts and £100 Elemis gifts on frequent occasions) and they are worth taking out.
