I should probably tell you up front, this is an iTunes deal. Yeah, I feel ya. Sorry about that. But for those of you who like iTunes, read on.
People Magazine can usually be counted on for a free Christmas song or two. This year, they're giving you TEN. It's part of their "Country Christmas Special" issue, so they're pulling out all the stops. Among the 10 selections are tracks from 2011 holiday releases by Joey + Rory, Ricky Scagga & Family, and Phil Vassar. The downloads also include 2011 Christmas singles from Jacob Lyda, Attwater, and Andy Gibson.
To get your redemption code, head to the People offer (click the magazine cover above or the link in the next paragraph). To redeem your free downloads from People Magazine and iTunes, go to your iTunes store, click the "Redeem" button on the upper right, and--when prompted--enter the code. If you don't already have iTunes (and aren't averse to getting it), you can download it free and then continue. The redemption code expires on 12/31/11.
To make things as simple as possible, just see the promotion at People and click the iTunes button (if you're from Canada, you'll have to click the Canadian flag and it's possible there may be a different redemption code for you folks, eh?). It's more complicated than it needs to be, but not as complicated as it sounds. Honestly.
UPDATE: Well, Rick Perry had his "Oops" moment; I guess this was mine. I thought there was one code, but People generates a new one for each ISP. The wonders of the Internets. Anyway, you'll actually have to go to the offer page to get your code. I've changed the copy above to reflect that. So it's 3 steps: Go to People and get your redemption code, go to iTunes and punch the "redeem" button, and then.....oh....ah....the...... third.....there's...........I, uh......hmmmmm..........nope, I can't do it. Oops. Yeah, I know, gratuitous...but fun.
