I would love to give this to my GF for Christmas, but the "give a gift of craft" link does not honor the $24.95 price.

Can the wonderful powers-that-be that made this offer please extended to work on the gift link? After all this was recommended as a gift.

Thanks

(ps I posted anon but realized it would take forever, so mods feel free to not post my non comment that much the same as this one)

MCR - it looks like the embedded promo code is "tngbng". I'm guessing maybe it was a typo? Try "bngbng" instead.

Sadly that doesn't help, and if you change the embedded from tngng to bngbng on the subnew.asp page the price goes back to $34.95 as well.

Thanks for the idea though.

Yeah, I ordered this for someone before I noticed the price was wrong. Oh well, a good way to spend $10 I suppose.

Uncanny how Craft: was right on the shoe throwing bandwagon with a special issue.

Thank you thank you thank you for posting this! I am a huge fan of CRAFT, but the price was killing me. I subscribed immediately!

Pork Musket: I tried emailing you but it bounced. Please send an email to [e-mail] to get your refund. Thanks!

Thanks for the fix Mark. Boing Boing and Make/Craft come through again.

Thanks Mark! I emailed Heather. I tried to update my email in my profile but I can't seem to find where to do that.

I went ahead and used the normal link, even though I was sending a gift. It worked fine, even though my GF got a notification (with an attachment) that she refused to open. After I told her what it was, she opened the e-mail and was delighted!! Well, an early Xmas gift is always good! Thank you, CRAFT and boingboing for this wonderful offer. I often see links to items in that zine that I know my crafty GF would just love, so she is happily perusing the on-line edition right now. Thanks again, and happy holidays!

Would love to order but the link is for U.S. customers only. The boingboing post seems to have a discount for us Canadians too but if I navigate through the Craft site I lose that oh so critical price point. Anyone know the Canuck-friendly link?

Hello, I have the same problem as JOEFREEMAN. I live in Belgium and cannot fine the correct link to subscribe for $ 39,95. The pages keep stating $49,95... What is the correct code or link please?
I would love to subscribe. I was already planning to subscribe and the extra reduction just pushed me over.

Same problems as JOELFREEMEN couldn't find the link to the Canadian discounted price. Any suggestions?
