Check out this website...it claims that you can get 2 free workout DVDs for just $4.95 shipping and handling. It looks pretty legitimate since it's from Prevention Magazine which is a reputable company as far as I know, but since I work at a credit union I am leary of giving out my credit card information for something that seems too good to be true. What do you all think?

    Okay, I just went and ordered it to see what the fine print is. These are only 10 min DVD's and after you click to order them you need to make sure to click that you don't want all the other stuff. They are trying to get you to order their other fat burning tapes and books. But I didn't see anything about sending you extra junk that all you have to do is send it back if you don't want it and you won't be billed.

    I ordered four "free" CD-Roms once for our homeschooling-- when all was said and done, it cost me $22. :noway:

    Ack I hope you wanted them and didn't just order them for my sake lol...otherwise I need to take you out for dinner or something!...they look like decent DVDs and I thought they would be good to supplement my workouts...as long as they don't have that "just send us this card back so we don't bill you" in there I might just order them...thanks a bunch!
