Gift Giving Guy

This Christmas, I finished much of my gift shopping on Amazon.com. Now Amazon unexpectedly rewarded me with a free magazine subscription. Because my wife’s gifts followed a “Top Chef” theme, I made several home merchandise purchases at Amazon. Those gifts earned me 12 issues of a home/cooking-themed magazine. Here’s the good news from straight from Amazon.

Thanks to the recent purchases you made in the Home and Garden store at Amazon.com, you are eligible to receive a one-year subscription to your choice of “Bon Appetit,” “Domino,” or “Gourmet” magazine (valued from $10 to $15)….

What’s the catch? None. We’re happy to provide our customers with the benefits of partnering with great publishers. There is no charge for this offer, and there is no automatic renewal.

All three magazine choices are from Condé Nast publications. My wife chose a year’s subscription to Domino, “a style magazine centered on home.” The first issue should arrive in six to eight weeks.

Thanks, Amazon!
