Forever 21 already sells the latest fashion trends at super low prices. However, if you’re smart, you can save even more money. As a frequent Forever 21 shopper online shopper, I discovered a little known trick for saving a few dollars on the website. Before you complete your purchase, carefully look at your shopping bag. Sometimes Forever 21 will add a free magazine subscription to your purchase. Most people opt out of this offer without thinking. However, if you read the fine print, you can actually get a rebate instead of the magazine subscription.
If you see a magazine subscription added to your cart, click on the fine print. It should say something like this:
Receive a 1-year subscription to Teen Vogue magazine (a $10 value) included with your purchase of $10 or more (before taxes and shipping) at Forever21.com.
If you do not want the subscription and instead prefer to receive a refund, please send a copy of your order confirmation showing proof of $10 or higher purchase on Forever21.com, fill out the below form and mail both documents within 30 days of making the qualifying purchase on Forever21.com.
All you need to do is fill out the form and mail it with your order confirmation to the address provided. It takes a few weeks, but you should receive a check for the value of the magazine subscription (usually around $10) in the mail. It’s super easy. Plus, I much rather have an extra $10 than a year’s worth of Teen Vogue magazine.
Unfortunately, this magazine rebate isn’t always available. If you are looking to save money at Forever21.com right now, here are some other tricks:
- Use eBates: eBates offers cashback when you shop at your favorite websites, including Forever 21. Usually this is only a small percentage, but it’s better than nothing, right? Sign up for eBates here.
- Sign up for F21 emails: Forever 21 sends out frequent email blasts. These emails usually include sales and promotions. Sometimes, they will even email you coupon codes, so it’s worth subscribing.
- Check RetailMeNot before you shop: Chances are, there is usually a Forever 21 coupon code floating around the internet. Check websites like RetailMeNot to see if there are any active promo codes you can apply to your purchase.
