If you plan to renew (or, I suppose, begin) a magazine subscription, it may be smart to do business over the phone. You may come out with a price significantly lower than those found in magazine inserts and mailed reminders. I speak from experience: anecdotal experience.
That concludes my advice for the day. YAEMV.
[Your anecdotal experience may vary.]

Especially since many of those mailed "reminders" are actually fraudulent solicitations by third parties. That scam never seems to go out of style.
I think the reminders in the mail were genuine. But one number on what appears to be a genuine subscriber-services page leads to an endless loop of gift-card and vacation offers. Very fishy.
You mean 'PHishy.'
Yes. And sketchy. But even legitimate offers from a magazine may name different prices.
