Jen, I wonder if I’ll get my soon too. I don’t think it’s a magazine I’ll pay for since everything is available online. I wonder if they thought about that before they changed it. Or, if they changed it to a paid subscription because everything is online. Things that make you go hmmmmmm… :)

I JUST got my latest copy and it has a LAST COPY UNLESS YOU SUBSCRIBE notice with it. They are offering it for 6.99 this year since I’m a Special Subscriber (ie. I’ve gotten it since at least 2004) but I’m bummed that this came w/out notice.

Amy, that’s a good question. Someone else also said maybe some are *grandfathered* in at not paying. Either way, I’ll be fine getting my recipes online. I mean, I liked the magazine to go through, but not enough to pay for it! Especially at that price!!

They JUST started charging for the magazine. But what is strange is that my parents and friends receive the magazine too and sometimes they have coupons in theirs that I don’t have and vice versa. It’s odd.

Mommysnacks- I wonder if this last Fall issue of the magazine is the last “free” one, although I think the quality of the magazine has gone down. (I’ve never gotten an invoice either) I’ve been getting it for almost 5 years and it seems that most of the recipes are lots of repeats now. And it has more ads for products and less actual content.

I had received the magazine for a long time and they quit sending it to me…I never got the September issue with the coupons. :( I realized this when my friend received hers and I never did. I’ve tried to contact them twice, with no response about it, and then saw where there is a subscription fee now. I LOVED that magazine! But like someone already said, you can get all of the recipes via email.

Krystal, yeah I am shocked! I would just subscribe to the newsletter to get the info that way.

That’s very surprising and disappointing that they are charging for the magazine now. To get around it, subscribe to their emails and also the RSS feeds. The recipes are exactly the same as what is in the magazine.

Amy, what???? I haven’t paid for that magazine EVER! I wonder why I don’t pay for it? I haven’t ever received an invoice either.

Now THAT is disappointing! I really enjoyed the magazine. Guess nothing stays free forever. I will miss it, emails just aren’t the same.

You can get emails for free from Kraft, but they are actually charging $13.98 for the magazine now. (Check the main page of the site) I can’t believe that they want to charge for it now, since everything is on the site.
