Wow… Actually, I saw this offer elsewhere first, but since Pam took the time to email me, I gave her credit for it. Blogging is about sharing and community — I’m sorry that it offends you that I want to give other sites some credit for working hard as well.
I love this site, also, and am directed to lots of great deals by Tara’s hard work, which is much appreciated! Jess, that was incredibly rude. If you don’t want to take advantage of the good work that she is doing (and at no expense to you, mind you), then don’t come to the site, and let all the rest of us who appreciate it enjoy it! — Again, Tara, thank you!
It is unbelievable the audacity of some people. I visit Tara’s blog along with at least 5 others daily. I am always appreciative of how these bloggers network together bring us great deals. Thank You Tara. Blogging about deals is NOT about original content. A deal is a deal!
Jess, if you’ve ever read any other blogs, you would know that the majority of those gals also get their deals from someone else, also. It was rude of you to make the comment that you did.
Jess, do you have a blog of your own? If so, you don’t ever pass on deals from others to your readers? If not, then even if Tara wasn’t doing ANY legwork (which I’m pretty sure isn’t true, but let’s pretend all content on DSM is gathered elsewhere), she is still providing a pretty kick ass service by aggregating all of these great deals for us to get.
DSM is one of my favorite sites. For me, it doesn’t matter if Tara finds each deal herself or whether she “finds” a deal cooperatively with others. I love to save time and money. Kudos – for your work (and giving others props when it is due)
Yes, Gina, they should just tack the 7 issues onto your existing subscription. If you would happen to start receiving duplicate subscriptions though, just call their customer service and they will combine them for you.
@Dawn & Teri:
I Agree! I Love DSM, been a fan for a while now! It can be difficult to find tons of deals all on your own and really, the best way to keep on top of all the deals is to work with other people to find them! That’s why Blogs are great! Everyone enjoys working together to benefit US!! :)
Thanks, I just subscribed to the 7 issues. Much appreciated for the Mommy tips! I love following you on twitter, so keep up the good work – many of us appreciate your tips!
What a rude subscriber you are J!! Thank YOU TARA for everything you share!! We all share something we find to be generous to others; I guess some are never satisfied. I think J owes you a huge apology at the very least!!
Thank you so much, Tara! Because my child is over a year old now, all of my free baby mag subscriptions had lapsed many months ago. In addition, I love that I scored a full-year’s subscription to Family Circle for $5.99 through this offer.
Thanks for all your posts – I subscribe to many blog web site e-mails and I find this one one of the easiest to read and follow – I often see duplicate deals on sites – but their good deals and I thank you for gathering and posting them … keep up the good work and don’t listen to ignorant people
Thanks for posting this! The deal is still good…I knew with a little searching I could get Parents magazine without having to pay anything (initially…). Thank you!!!
Jess
Is any of your content original? You are always saying “thanks so and so”. Don’t you do any of your own work?

Jess- If you don’t like Tara’s blog, then don’t read it. And leave your rude comments off. Thank you for all you do Tara!!
Laura

Ditto, Dawn! What a rude comment, Jess!
Jill
What a great find! I love free magazines! Thanks for ALL you do, Tara. :-) You save us all tons of money!!
Gina
Thanks – I already get this mag – wonder if they will add the 7 issues onto my subscription?
Tara Kuczykowski
Yes, Gina, they should just tack the 7 issues onto your existing subscription. If you would happen to start receiving duplicate subscriptions though, just call their customer service and they will combine them for you.
Amber
Great Deal – Thanks!

Thanks Tara I appreciate what you do. That was rude of Jess. If she doesn’t like what you do then she can look elswhere.

What a rude comment! I would much rather you give credit than take it for yourself!! I love the deals I get from DSM no matter where they come from!!!
Don
I find it ironic that one of the headlines on the magazine cover above is “teaching respect in a rude world”. maybe Jess needs to read this issue.

@Noelle, I got both mags, too!
I am a new SAHM and looking forward to all the money I am going to save. Thanks to Tara and all the other deal hunters for the tips!
