I got a Groupon for a bunch of magazine subscriptions for $5 each. I could not resist and signed up, and gave a few as gifts, too. It put me on mailing lists (I expected that to happen) and now I get offers in the mail all the time. Magazine subscriptions are now dirt cheap. I won’t name them because it would be spam but has anybody else noticed that?

Magazines used to be like $30 and up per year, sometimes $60. Now, anywhere from $8 to $20. Magazine fans, good to know.

I realize that thanks to our economy, and the internet, they’re hurting and trying to stay alive.
