Bon appetit dahlings!
It was time for my semi-annual skillet replacement shopping, and I did so the other day.
I picked up a new Rival 12-Inch Square Skillet with Glass Lid, and when I just checked on it's shipping status, (it's coming today!) I noticed a link for a special offer I didn't see when I ordered it.
If you buy anything from Amazon's home and garden department totaling $25 or more before taxes, gift wrap, and shipping, you can receive a free 1 year subscription to one of three magazines.
About 1 to 2 weeks after your purchase, you will receive an email with directions on how to redeem your free magazine.
You can choose between Gourmet, Domino, or Bon Appetit.
I'm going to go with the last one, Bon Appetit.
I know it's not chock full of recipes, but of the 3 mags offered, it's the best one.
And it's free because my skillet was $29.99 before shipping, which I chose the super saver shipping so it was free ($9.71value) and I had $5 left over in gift certs, so my total cost for the new skillet was only $24.99.
But I totally qualify because they said before taxes and shipping.
ha!
So get my new skillet and a free 1 year subscription to a pretty nice mag.
I love bargains.
I would have liked it even more though if they had offered a subscription to Everyday Food.
It's a far better magazine for real recipes that anyone can make.
But free is free!

I don't know anything about Domino, but I think that Bon Appetit is better than Gourmet when it comes to recipes. I don't subscribe to either one, but sometimes I buy copies at the store if something looks interesting. Sometimes it's fun to fantasize about the expensive stuff that's in those magazines.
I love Everyday Food, I have every single issue since it first started. That, and Cook's Illustrated are the only food mags I subscribe to right now. Have you seen the Everyday Food TV show? It's on PBS, I don't know it it's on in your area. It's a good show, though, and they post the recipes online so you can print them out.
