SO.... what magazines do YOU love?
Those free mystery magazines are very outdoorsy. I bet they were a gift from someone who wants you to do more outdoorsy things, except when you're at work, apparently.
ReplyDeleteYeah, at the work that I don't have! :) I think my husband got on some outdoorsy list. But they are nice magazines... and I find it strange they'd just send them for free... instead of just a sample copy or something.
ReplyDeleteI miss Pages! It was my favorite magazine before it died. :-(
ReplyDeleteI only wrote about Bookmarks--you have great taste!! I had to laugh about your free magazines. We started to get TV Guide for free about a year ago for no apparent reason. Then they called to see if I wanted to renew and I very emphatically told them NO! Guess what is still coming each week?!
ReplyDeleteThe magazine All For You looks very intersting--I have never seen it before. You are the 2nd person to mention Mental Floss and I am very strongly considering checking this one out for me and my boys.

mental floss and bookmarks are two of my favorite magazines. I wish I subscribed to bookmarks. The only things we get are Brain. Child (AWESOME parenting mag), US News and World Reports, and ESPN.
ReplyDeleteI've read several reviews of Bookmarks on Weekly Geeks. I may just have to check that out!! I wonder if our public library carries a subscription...

Bookmarks seems to be a great find from these weekly geeks posts. I don't subscribe, but maybe I should.
