The Economist $12 for 12 weeks plus 1200 bonus American Airlines FF miles is a definite RIP OFF. This is an AA "Advantage" buying program where you can get FF miles when you buy from the featured sellers.
I was supposed to receive an email at the end of the trial period to cancel the subscription, but it never came.
By the time I became aware of the scam, my credit card had been hit for almost $150.00.
Of course, I'll never, read the Economist again. But I may also stop flying on American Airlines as well.
