Magazines on sale at Amazon

Get a load of the super cheap magazine subscriptions Amazon is offering as possible Mother's Day gifts:

Parents is $5. Good Housekeeping is $5. Garden Design is $5. Marie Claire is $5. O, The Oprah Magazine is $10. Pregnancy is $10. Five other titles are on sale in the $5 to $10 range and all the subscriptions are for one year. The sale ends May 9.

To get the deal you have to agree to auto-renew, which means that after a year Amazon will automatically charge your credit card at a higher subscription rate. Make a note on your calender 10 months in so you can make a conscious decision whether to continue subscribing instead of getting a pricey surprise on your credit card bill.

I'm really tempted to get my mom a subscription to Garden Design because she loves spending time in the yard and is always talking about how she wished her plants looked nicer. Hmmm...
