Trial Period

Although I did not have any trouble canceling my membership during the trial period, I have heard several 'horror' stories relating to this.

If you wanted to give it a try, I would sign up and not wait to receive the welcome package in the mail. You will receive a membership # as soon as you sign up (either on-line or via telephone), and you can use that # to order the vouchers right away. That way, you will be sure to receive your vouchers prior to the trial deadline. In fact, you just pay for the vouchers outright with your credit card and you do not have to worry about the kickback they offer members on most of the other purchases you can make. (For instance, if you wanted to order gift certificates to restuaurants, you would place your order and pay the full amount of the actual face value of the certificates ordered, say $100 for ten $10 Olive Garden certificates. Then, Connections credits your credit card account at a later date with the 20% savings they offer. In other words, you'd receive a $20 credit on your bill usually in the next month.)
