Started receiving Road & Track...but didnt ask for it

Not complaining because this is a good car mag... but Ive received the past 2 issues of R&T which I do not subscribe to. Both featuring Porsche.

I do subscribe to Excellence... could this be some special promotion?

If they send me an invoice, Ill probably just pay it.

That's one of the deals going on. OTOH, I get invoices for Time which I don't get anymore.

Milt,

Those aren't invoices. They are Time's "clever" way of getting people to subscribe. I fell for it once.

Bought anythign from Crutchfield lately?

Same thing happened to me after I bought the system for the car. Got a note with the second one that said "Thanks for buying from us, as a sign of appreciation, we've given you a 1 yeard subscription to R&T."

Just in time for the Porsche specials...I think they've had a feature on one every issue this year so far.

Yes, I purchased a stereo from Crutch in January. Maybe this is their gift to me.

Very sweet cover picture this month. Porsche GT, Ferrari Enzo, MB SLR in Italy.

I have been getting Playboy (or maybe it's Penthouse) for the last three years without asking for it. Comes in a plastic cover so it's discrete. I called a while ago to tell them to stop but.......

Anyone want a box full of unopened mags?
