The income reported to you does not appear to be compensation, as you are not required to perform services to receive it. Consequently, if anything it would be a gift that would not be taxable to you. It does seem that you are simply purchasing items at a discount which would not be associated with taxable income. It might be wise to report the Form 1099-Misc on your tax return and then enter a negative adjustment to other income to cancel out the income to avoid the IRS form inquiring about it though. This is how to enter the adjustment:
1. From the Federal menu in TurboTax find Wages and Income
2. Find Less Common Income
3. Choose Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
4. Choose Other Reportable Income
5. Enter a description of the subtraction and the adjustment as a negative number
