The bonus incentive is usually in the form of a gift card or gift certificate to a popular restaurant or retailer. You may also qualify for additional free one-year subscriptions to other popular magazines. Your order will be processed while you are on the phone and you must allow the agent to capture your payment details. You will more than likely have to pay $16.00-$49.00 to ensure that you receive all of your freebies.
