Cheers! JudyJFLA Judy Jones 11 Live Oak Lane Fort Myers, FL 33905 Seriously, is this a serious offer to distribute magazines to VA institutions? If so, could you provide a bit more info on what you do that takes you on your appointments? I don't mean to pry, but I'd seriously consider such de facto donations. Send a pm if you prefer. |
The fine print on the page before you get sent to magazines.com doesn't address this, do you get points for the taxes? For CC spend you do, but my experience in the UR portal says no.

Any tax experts on the tax deductibility of sending magazines to Judy to distribute to the VA? :)

Wish they had the New York Times or something, I think I'm going to get the $100 Economist sub... And 6k miles. Not bad and good reading material

Okay - I'll guineapig this.
In for $1305 to the Los Angeles Children's Hospital, using a private browser and the portal. Benefits: They say cancel at anytime and get a refund of unused issues. Fairly safe risk if you have to cancel 3 months in and then prorate the deduction. Should be well settled before tax time. Risks: Everything people say about Cartera. |

is there an expiration on the deal? i'd love to run by the childrens hospital here to confirm they'd like the donation but I don't want to wait past midnight if it's just a 1 day deal!

But won't it be fishy canceling $1300 worth of magazine subs? Most expensive I saw was the ~$100 economist.

Happy to donate the magazine subscriptions to a worthy cause. |
Thanks OP!
I'm in for a bunch of random subs to send to the troops PLUS 10.5k pts Happy Thanksgiving y'all |
