I mulled it over a bit and finally decided to subscribe to Pathfinder for the Crimson Throne series. I’d been waffling a bit, but it was the Pathfinder Discount that finally pushed me off the fence.
So I subscribed, got my ‘Subscriber’ tag, and then went to order PF#4 with my shiny new discount.
In my enthusiasm, of course, I forgot to confirm that I was getting that discount and I just wanted to pass on my cautionary tale that it apparently takes a while for your subscription discount to ‘kick in’.
Don’t be rash like me. The two bucks you save may be your own.

yeah - you get access to the discount when your first subscription order ships, that way people can't 'subscribe' use the discount and then cancel the subscription

Yes it's a good point. But you still set that up.
I don't feel Cube-y...

Cpt_kirstov is correct.
From the Pathfinder Advantage description: "To qualify for the Pathfinder Advantage, the most recent volume of the Pathfinder Adventure Path must have been shipped to you, or must be waiting to ship with your other subscription products."

Makes sense to me. Since the PF#7 was already out, I figured it'd automatically be slated for shipping but if I'd stopped long enough to look I would've noticed the pdf version wasn't available yet and taken that as a hint.
It's only two bucks though, right? Enough to get me off the fence and encourage me to subscribe, but not enough to warrant any harsh thoughts. I was mostly hoping for a "yeah, I did that too" post or two so I didn't feel so dumb.
If nothing else, at least my comment to Susan, with her avatar change, now makes absolutely no sense so I've got that going for me...
