10,000 Free Moneywise Magazines

What is it?

Moneywise magazine is the largest circulation money monthly in the UK (and it’s got a column by me in there too!)

What's this freebie about?

I managed to blag Moneywise to give 10,000 free copies away to MoneySavers, the normal cover price is £3.95. This is a total freebie, ie no need to sign up and cancel the direct debit like the normal free magazines thread.

Of course the main reason Moneywise agrees is it includes details in there of its subscription offers, and hopes MoneySavers are the type of people who'll like it and buy/subscribe to the mag.

If you had a Moneywise freebie last time, you can't this time

This isn't the first time I've blagged free copies from Moneywise. If you've had a copy in the last six months you won't be allowed one this time as it's (understandably) put a limit of no more than two in any one year.
Please only get it if you'll read it!

And while it's a freebie, if you won't read the magazine or aren't interested in reading it (it's more hardcore money than the consumer finance stuff on this site) please leave copies for those MoneySavers who'll enjoy it.

When's it out?

It is the July edition of Moneywise, which is in the shops on 28 June and MoneySavers should get it within a week either side of that.

    Dear Martin Thanks for that.
    I took up the offer the last time and the magazine was an excellent read which I passed onto other friends.

    Can I also compliment you on your fantastic no no nonsense approach that you have with making it clear that you should only order it if you are going to read it and you cant have it if you took advantage before. I love it. its such a pleasure instead of having this faffing around that I often have to put up with. Carry on the great work that you do.

  • Come Friday 8th June expect the site to crash at around 4pm :D:D:D .
    It has taken about 4,500,000,000 (4.5 billion) years for the Earth to form as it is now .........
    and it'll only take about another 100 years for mankind to really **** it up!!!!

    Why isn't it available right now?


    As it takes 18 hours for the e-mail to send to over 1.2 million people, I want to ensure everyone gets a fair chance of getting a mag. This way when the link goes up 4pm on Friday everyone will have had prior warning. The 10,000 will probably run out within about 5 hours.

    why post this now then?

    Why not? Martin has posted this now to give those on the freebies (no spend required) board some notice of an impending freebie in the weekly email. Since the readership of the email is 1.2 million, the heads up on the freebie board will help ensure regulars of this part of MSE get a copy.

    I already subscribe, so I am not eligible, but I would urge anyone to try and get the free copy and failing that to subscribe... there is usually some kind of promotion and the content is a good read.
  • Okay, it's 4pm. Where's the link? :confused:
    If you think reality makes sense, you're just not paying attention!
