That happened to me too. I actually saw something I liked and bought it. It was only $20 for a year.

they had funny timing actually

my roommate just found out he has FIVE accounts with magazines that he never signed up for. In 1997 he had a subscription to Maxim and apparently one of the condidtions was if he didn't cancel, they could add on a bunch of new subscriptions to both the same and other magazines. The worst part was the subscriptions were renewed for a full 7 years.

So this shady crap really makes me frown further upon these two girls
 
one time..in a best buy parking lot..these two odd looking girls asked me and my friend if we wanted to sample some cologne.

we are pretty sure they wanted to drug us.

lets have sex
 
Arg, I hate those people. One of those ladies came to my apartment one day and tried to sell me a magazine. She bluntly asked if she could come in, and I was too nice to say no. She used some BS excuse like "it's for my college fee, I go to arizona state, blah blah blah." The whole time I was worrying about her perfume smell, which reminded me of cheap strip club, and my parents were like 20 mins away, on the way to my apartment.

Thank god I made her leave soon enough. Had to spray the living room with my cologne to cover the tittay bar smell.

If there were other people around you should have screamed, "Look girls, I don't want to buy any magazines and I DON'T want to sleep with you! Please let me get on with my business!"

LOL.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I beg your pardon miss, but you smell like a tittay bar."

I've been approached a few times with the "Buy our Magazines" sales pitch, in several different cities/towns. Its always the same "help us win the contest" BS. Anyone know what that's all about?

Yep. The contest is real, but they'll lie about the number of points they get for various crap. They're just (generally) young adults selling magazines, travelling across the country. There were a few on a crew that were 30 or older back when I was doing it. The whole "involuntary servitude" might have been true in the past, but I never heard of anyone that quit who didn't get a bus ticket back to the town they came from.

Odds are the subscription card inside the magazine lets you subscribe for $10-15 😛
 
As I'm taking the keys off she GRABS MY NIPPLE. What the hell?! She said that she was just trying to make me smile...then she follows it up by saying she's going to start collecting things from cute boys.

Should have told her to grab you a bit lower... 😉
