I tried this,but i did not get the offer.
I turned of the pop up blocker.
Wonder if it need to be a certain kind of registry?
Edit - I changed the registry type from wishlist to Birthday and the offer came up.

A little tricky...
After you register you are taken back to the registration page. I actually selected Toys from the menu bar (there is a link in the banner for the magazines IGNORE THIS LINK) selected a specific toy. You should then see the free offer for the magazines. Selected the magazine you would like.

Go back to page one and read the instructions and try again. You are setting up a birthday registry for a child. After you finish the first page go to a category of toys and pick a toy or toys and click add to REGISTRY, not add to cart.
Thanks OP, I got Wondertime since we already get Family Fun and Cookies looked like it was a lot of advertising. Repped!

I just did this for my Cousin and her family to make sure it was still working and if you follow the instructions I posted in the Wikipost which is the post right under the first post in the thread, you WILL be able to get the magazine sub.
Offer is still available. I have verified this.

After you add one item into your registry, it will bring you to the page that you choose your free magazine subscription. Look carefully.

I've started to get Cookies and I'm not thrilled with it. It's mosty ads. Yes, I know there are a lot of ads in any magazine, but I think this one is over the top.
Glad I didn't pay for it. I don't even want to give it to anyone, it's really terrible.

:lol: :iagree: Cookie is the magazine for the non-SD mom with way too much time and money on her hands. I got a free sub from Amazon and got a good laugh out of it every month. I kid you not - there was an article on why it's OK that 3 yr old Timmy is a cross dresser. :eek: He's just expressing himself. :huh:
Anyhoo - looking forward to Family Fun! Should be arriving soon.
Thank you for posting the information about Cookie. I was going to get it, but after reading this, decided to change it to Family Fun instead!

What magazine did you order? When did you order it? Did you try checking for your account online at the magazine website?
Here is where you check at Family Fun, email or call CS at 800-289-4849
https://w1.buysub.com/pubs/G4/FAF/entry.jsp?cds_page_id=47760&cds_mag_code=FAF&id=1247668772990&lsid=91960939329013901&vid=1
Here is where you check at Cookie, email CSor call CS at 877-402-6654
https://w1.buysub.com/pubs/N3/KIE/entry.jsp?cds_page_id=25758&cds_mag_code=KIE&id=1247668825261&lsid=91960939329013901&vid=3
If the magazine doesn't have your order in their system, perhaps it didn't work for you for some reason. Try again, creating a registry at OneStepAhead with another email address.
Good luck!

[QUOTE=KPS;21259861]What magazine did you order? When did you order it? Did you try checking for your account online at the magazine website?
Thanks for the info. I wasn't in the system (Cookie). Guess I'll try again. Z:(
I have signed up with many others magazine offers but My account info always takes about few days to show up.

Thanks! I actually cheated, I got both Family Fun and Cookie! I registered twice with two of my different email accounts!;)

Still works. Wondertime not offered.

Wondertime not offered because it's no longer being published. I can't believe this deal is still working! It's awesome. :shake:
