Right, so create the User first, then create a new SearchSubscription that belongs to the user. You might be better off having the users created independently, that is, not attached to the idea of "dynamically generate the user whenever they want to do a search". But rather, "Anonymous User wants to save a search, so they are redirected to the signup screen.'
