I'm not sure what you mean exactly by "allowances" but to set up a gift subscription just go through the normal process of setting up a subscription online, and fill the gift recipient's information in for the shipping address. When it comes to renewal time, they shouldn't have any trouble renewing themselves. And if they do... well, that's why I'm here. : )

That depends, really... if you wish the first issue to be the December 2006 issue of Dungeon (issue #141), then you'll need to order it this week. If you wish the first issue to be the December 2006 issue of Dragon (issue #350), then you'll want to order before the second week of October. However, while these issues have the cover date of "December 2006", they are actually shipped to subscribers in mid and late October, respectively, so US subscribers will start receiving them in late October/early November. Issues going to the UK, however, will take longer to reach their destination.
If you want the first issue of the subscription to arrive in December, then you'll probably want the subscriptions to start with the January 2006 issue. To accomplish this for Dungeon, you'll want to order online between October 7 and October 29. To accomplish this for Dragon magazine, you'll want to order online between October 21 and November 12. This means that if you want to get a subscription to both magazines (and get two dollars off the subscription price of each), you'll want to order them both together on a single order between Oct 21 and Oct 29.
I apologize for the lengthy answer, but as you can see, your question is deceptively complex. I hope this clears it up for you.
Thanks,

(I know, I ask a lot, I'm just a mite concerned that the mysterius arival of high class gaming periodicals may need explanations that would spoil the suprise. )

Unfortunately, subscriber issues ship directly from the printer in clear plastic polybags, so there really isn't any way for us to personalize or disguise their delivery.
Well I placed the Gift sub some time ago, and it shows in my order history, but I recived my 350 weeks ago and my freind is still wating for his. Any idea when he'll recive it / when you'll beabe to send a replacement magazine?

Well, as I stated in my previous post,
If you wish the first issue to be the December 2006 issue of Dragon (issue #350), then you'll want to order before the second week of October.
We received your order on October 22, so his first issue will be Dragon issue #351. This issue ships to subscribers on November 28, which should arrive at UK address sometime around Christmas (this is a VERY rough estimate).
Thanks!
