Favorite Magazines (Post 55)

If you want to start your own ten cent crazy book - read post 1-4 to find out how

We each have our own list of favorite magazines, I order quite a few magazines through the mail, so in my ten cent crazy book I keep a list of my favorite magazines. I put a check next to those that come in the mail and list those that I buy at the checkout stand. If I notice that I'm purchasing the same magazine over and over, I will order a subscription. I just ordered a magazine for fifteen bucks - which I will receive every month for three years. In the store - I was paying 3.99 a month.

My favorite magazines:

Women's Day
Ladies Home Journal
Good Housekeeping
Rachael Ray
Food Network
Real Simple
Oprah
Martha Stewart Living
Better Homes and Gardens
Shop
Marie Claire
Semi-Homemade
Family Circle

List your magazines and keep track of how often you buy them.
It can save you a lot of money to get them through the mail.
(Hint - don't use a credit card to pay for a subscription - always check the bill me later box and when the bill comes - write a check and mail it in. The reason - a lot of magazines will just continue to charge your credit card year after year and continue your subscription forever, regardless of how much their cost increases - unless you cancel the subscription - and this may be difficult, since your credit card has already been charged.) Plus, if you write a check and let the subscription run out - you can sometimes get a better deal, starting a new subscription - and if you decide you like another magazine better you may want to order it instead.
