The small print on the bottom of the page says Hearst Magazines division. That's the publisher so I assume there's no catch. My guess is it's for new subscriptions since there's no place to check off that it's a renewal.

One thing you may have to watch out for is if they set you up for automatic renewal. That happened to me with my last subscription to Good Housekeeping. I paid for the renewal, then I went into my online account and disabled automatic renewal.

I am always the skeptical one, but just because it says the publisher's name at the bottom doesn't mean it's the actual company. There is a hearstmags.com (without the additional info on the link provided), but the price there is $15 for a year. I can't find anything on their actual site for the $5 deal. I did email the company to make sure it was a legit offer before ordering. I'm waiting on a response.

 

OP, where did you find the $5 off link? Was it from an email directly from the company? If so, then it should be fine.

Yes, I received this in an email from the publisher. I ordered the Food Network magazine and got my confirmation within minutes. For $5.00, it was worth a shot for me.

Thanks everyone for the info. I am always cautious because I got scammed awhile back on some subscriptions. I had already ordered 11 of these subcriptions before you posted at $10each, but at $5 went ahead and added a few more.
