I made the update to my post from a couple days ago, but I wanted to make sure all of you who signed up for Nicole's Saving Advantage were aware that the trial month is $2.95, not free as originally stated. Thereafter, the monthly fee is $9.95, not $2.95. While my numbers were wrong, the terms and agreements on the link were correct and I am hoping you caught the difference!
The gift card offer is still accurate - you will get a $25 Starbucks and $25 Target gift card for signing up. As mentioned, you may need to fill out a postcard that arrives shortly after you sign up. I just sent mine off yesterday and am hoping to have my cards soon.
I encourage you to make good use of the trial membership to see if this program is right for you! (And yes, I still consider this a great deal for $50 in gift cards!) No clue what I'm talking about? Go on over here.

I signed up for this too, but have not recieved a post card yet. By the time I signed up you also had to subscribe to some magazine, but had 30 days to cancel. The whole thing was kind of weird. Have you gone on there to check on the savings deals? It looks like you have to buy gift cards, at least that is what I found when I was looking at the JC Penny’s one. A friend of mine got scammed on some other online thing that was totally different that this one and I’m wondering if this is legit and am hoping I really will be able to cancel out of all of it later and not get charged more than the $2.95. Have you learned any more about this company?
I noticed the magazine thing too…I later realized it was an e-zine, so nothing came directly to me in the mail. I just went back and re-read the original terms and agreements (which I’d copied and pasted down for future reference) and saw nothing about a separate magazine fee. The only charges I’ve seen come through were authorized by me and part of the agreement.
I can tell you that my welcome kit came about a week after signing up and the postcard came towards the end of my trial month.
If at any point you’re feeling uncomfortable, it appears you can cancel online or via the toll-free number that was provided in the Terms.
I will let you know once I’ve rec’d my gift cards!
Katrina, feel free to email me if you have more questions about this!!
