*Unrequested Renewel*, Mostly ads, little substance in articles September 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I subscribed for $5 for one year through Amazon, but even as cheap as that is, I'm not happy with this purchase. I feel like I bought junk mail. The magazine goes in the garbage the same day it comes.
I was quite surprised when the end of my subscription neared and I got a letter from Redbook stating they will AUTOMATICALLY renew the subscription UNLESS I call the 800 number they provide. The letter states that if I cancel the (unrequested) renewal I will still have to pay for any issues I've already received.
Rather than play the game of calling their solicitation center and paying for something from them I didn't agree to purchase, I plan to regard any unsolicited material from them as a gift. A trash-bound gift, but a gift nonetheless.
I will no longer buy ANY magazines from this publisher because I don't like the way they do business. From now on, I'll read the magazines I do like in the library.
Hooked on Redbook July 29, 2008 When I was younger I used to sneak peeks of my mom's copy of Redbook, feeling like I was really getting away with something devious.
Today, a little older, a little wiser and I still find myself sneaking off with a copy of Redbook and feeling like I'm getting away with something. Only now it's my own copy and I'm usually sneaking off to soak in a bubble bath and relax while reading.
Not every article interests me, but how often do you really find a magazine that you truly care about every page, cover to cover? They have a goal to reach a large audience of women with a huge variety of interests, so it's nearly impossible to appeal to every woman with every article. However, I think they do a pretty darn good job and I have never finished an issue feeling disappointed.
Magazines---Redbook May 31, 2008 This is not a rating or review about Redbook but rather the service we received in ordering a magazine through Amazon. The service was excellant and the magazine which was a gift for a person , was sent exactly as promised.
Always Has Something I Enjoy March 13, 2008 This magazine always has a few things I enjoy reading. You can't go wrong for the price. The transaction was smooth. My order was processed, and the issues began arriving in a very timely manner. I would recommend subscribing to this magazine through Amazon for a great deal.
Cheap, Fun and Informative February 15, 2008 I think this is a great magazine. The subscription price is incredibly reasonable. I find that it fits me and my lifestyle well. It definitely seems geared toward 30-40s aged women with families and young children. The topics are interesting...kind of like the next stage of Cosmopolitan. I look forward to it each month.
