Just as an FYI:
If you buy something from Best Buy and are presented with "free issues" of Entertainment Weekly or some other mag, you probably want to say no...unless you really really like those magazines.
Turns out, you get like 8 issues for free, and then they automaticly bill your credit/debit card $25-$30 for a full subscription. Of course, the teenage schlep at the register fails to mention this.
I got nailed for the EW subscription for $25. Funny thing is that the 6 month EW sub is $19.95 on their website. I'm sure BestBuy is heavily profitting on these magazines. This irked me so bad I will take my business elsewhere from now on.
