    Hate to be negative but skip the magazines. Save yourself some money and the clutter. Most of what you read can be found online. Also think about the environment.

      I work at a magazine publishing onlinepany so please don’t skip the magazines! While it’s clutter to some, it’s jobs to others.

    I still love magazines. If you fill out a weekly survey at rewardsurvey.online you can earn points/money toward subscriptions. Most are free and no strings attached. I have gotten myself several and family members several the last year. Makes great gifts and cheap. You don’t even have to enter a credit card so there is no reason to worry about being charged any fees. Some are paper and some are digital. Great choices!!

    I love magazines! They make the perfect transition from screen time to bed time.
