So for about the 5th time in about the last 3 years or so, I got an email thanking me for my order of one of their magazines which was Redbook this time. Problem is like all other times, I never subscribed to their magazines. I only enter their sweeps which has a direct link to their "No Subscription" option which is then bookmarked by me so there is zero chance of me mistakenly subscribing to any of their magazines. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hearst Magazine - Always subscribing me to magazines when I enter sweeps

I would probably try not bookmarking the no subscription link, and clicking it fresh each time. In the same time frame I have only once gotten an email, and I forgot to click the no subscription link, so it was totally my fault.

I just looked at another Hearst sweep - http://womansday.hearstmobile.com/sweepstakes/31081
Hearst Sweeps have this disclaimer- - "If you'd prefer to enter the sweepstakes without getting the free trial, click here."
I "clicked Here" and the URL is exactly the same as the first (subscription) page.
By bookmarking the page, you are probably getting the "subscription" page when you open the sweep. When you complete and submit, you're ordering a subscription.
