I fill these out frequently but never get the magazine. I filled some out over a year ago. Do these offers work for anyone? Just curious!

Well, thats kinda scary... I got a "free" subscription to better homes from restaurant.com or somewhere. I wonder if they'll charge me... :(

...and the usual crop of complainers pops up. in 10+ years of signing up for free magazines from various sites, only once did I get a subscription I didn't ask for (and it was for a fishing magazine -- I didn't read the fine print when I signed up for a fishing lure freebie).
1) Don't confuse an invoice with a renewal notice. They look similar. Sometimes you'll sign up for a new sub and you'll get a renewal notice even before the sub starts.
2) If you did get an invoice, you were not "charged." You simply got an invoice (somehow in error). Call the magazine company (Google is your friend) and tell them you never placed the order.
Done.

Kendra, Did you get the majority of magazines?

No. I got all of them. I get a ton of magazines (I'm a reader instead of a TV watcher) and the only magazine I pay for is STAR (a guilty pleasure and I got a fantastic deal on it). Otherwise, I get Shape, Allure, Lucky, Redbook, Women's Health, Rolling Stone, Better Homes and Gardens, MORE Magazine, Ladies Home Journal, Backpacker, OK! Magazine, US Magazine, Newsweek, Family Fun, and a slew of others for free. :)
