I picked mine up at the grocery store - I don't actually subscribe yet but was thinking about it. However, with the number of times I have seen questions about delivery...wondering if I want to get a different one, like Stamp It instead...any thoughts?

Still waiting on mine too. I've seen it already on the magazine aisle in town though. I thought if you subscribed to a magazine, you get it before newstands. I always get it way later than the store :(

I was just digging around thinking that I hadn't seen mine April issue either... so I thought someone else might have picked up the mail and tucked it away. But it's not here yet! I'm going to send them a note today.
I just signed up for the subscription in February and already get stiffed on my first issue. I had to email them about not receiving it and now they will send me a replacement copy that I should receive in 2-3 weeks. Aaarghh!
If I knew this was going to happen I would have never subscribed. I would just go get it at Michaels with a coupon. And then the kicker is I have already received a solicitation to renew the subscription.
Here's their response as to why the issues are out in the stores before subscribers receive them:
Newsstand and store issues are sent as 1 bulk shipment to their
destinations, whereas subscription issues are sent through several
destinations to reach your mailbox. This is why most stores get them before the
subscribers.
I haven't gotten my copy yet. I didn't get last months copy either. I've emailed them and they keep extending my subscription...but this is the third time this year. I LOVE their magazine, but the point of my subscription is to have it early and not have to pay newstand price. I'm hoping this is a glitch and they'll have some kind of explaination. Otherwise, I won't renew and will just pick it up when I think of it at B&N. Which is, basically, what I have to do now. By the way, I'm in Oklahoma.
still nothing in Nebraska. I received my first issue (last month's which I had already purchased on the newsstand) but no April/May issue yet.
What gives?
I have not recieved mine either but I live in Hawaii so we gets ours weeks after everyone else! I find myself in the bookstore looking at them even though I know they will show up at my door in a week or so!
For those who haven't gotten their magazine.This is from an email I got from them asking when I should have received my issue:
Dear Ms. Wright,
The April/May 2005 should be received no later than March 29th.
Newsstand and store issues are sent as 1 bulk shipment to their
destinations, whereas subscription issues are sent through several
destinations to reach your mailbox. This is why most stores get them before the
subscribers.
a few months ago I was at a stamping store and they got theirs in and I thought great I'll get home and mine will be there... only thing was it didnt' show up for over 3 weeks...
I always thought and was told that if you have a subscription you get it before the stores... well when I called the company about it they say that some stores put them out when they want others wait ... still makes no sense to me...
