Never had a problem with discountmags.com, you just have to remember to cancel before they auto-renew for "regular price". I've used them for years without any problems.

I'm noticing that many of these subscriptions are cheaper when you order directly from the publisher, as long as you find their Black Friday deal.

Community Reviews

DiscountMags is a reliable way to grab discounted magazine subscriptions, especially for titles like Consumer Reports, The Economist, Wired, and PC Gamer. The subscriptions work, and the pricing can beat direct renewal by a wide margin, with Consumer Reports and The Economist called out as especially strong values. The main catch is auto renewal, which can kick in at full price unless the cancellation email or Discount Lock is handled in time. Some print titles also have fewer than 12 issues a year, and Consumer Reports print does not include online reviews. A solid option if you want cheap magazine access and stay on top of renewal settings.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes. Subscriptions can auto-renew well before expiration at the regular rate, so the cancellation email needs to be watched closely. The Discount Lock feature can be canceled per title to prevent renewal.

  • Yes. The subscriptions are reported to be fulfilled correctly, with multiple long-term users reporting no problems over years of purchases. The main caution is managing auto-renewal so you do not get charged the full regular price.

    chrisaf69sc2deal-gnusduke5150

  • Yes. Consumer Reports reportedly dropped from 12 issues per year to 6 while the price stayed about the same. That makes the print subscription less attractive unless the discounted price is the main reason to buy.

  • Consumer Reports is much cheaper through DiscountMags than direct: one deal cited $27.90 for 2 years versus $39 per year direct. The print subscription does not include access to Consumer Reports' online reviews.

    deal-gnusSmarterGuy

  • Yes. Both PC Gamer and Retro Gamer are included in the sale in digital format. Retro Gamer print is noted as typically very expensive, making the digital option the practical choice.

Haven't used them in a couple years but the subscriptions worked. I'll say they will auto-renew your subs way in advance at the full rate so keep an eye out for the single email they'll send letting you cancel the full-price renewal.
Virtual CCs are a must for any "subscription"

any reason to choose one over the other discount mags vs magazines? I compare readers digest for example that my parents like and it's the same price, but site magazines can get 40% cbETA: mobile via link here I'm getting better prices than on my laptop.

I've used Discount Mags for years. No problems at all. Consumer Reports magazine is $39 per year if you subscribe direct, or $27.90 FOR 2 YEARS thru DM. Can't beat it!
Same experience for me, never had an issue. Just need to make sure you stop the auto-renewal.

Just go for Magzter which has unlimited access to 10000+ magazines and newspapers, great for idle time at the doctors and flights etc.

People used to be 32 for the year, not for 6 mos. Anyone seen that deal lately or is this the best it gets?

Huge steal for Consumer Reports. These days it's crazy to buy without checking CR first.

No movie/video game mags? Frown
I scrolled through the entire catalog of magazines looking for a single videogame magazine. 😢
