Favorite Magazines (Post 218)

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 – I just saved myself $129 bucks over the next three years on one magazine.

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.
