How to Save Money on Magazines

Have you ever perused the magazine rack in a grocery store, found a weighty magazine, and then discovered that it costs $9.99 or even $12.95.  It's possible to spend $60 and walk out with only a half-dozen periodicals.  if you are on a tight budget, that's not cool at all.

Here are a few ways to save money on magazines:

1.  Subscribe.  If you subscribe to magazines, you'll save a lot of money over the newstand price.  Sometimes you can get a whole year of a magazine for $10 or $12.  To save money right now, you can easily subscribe to Amazon magazines and handle your whole subscription process online without those annoying little insert cards.

2.  Use the Public Library.  Magazines at the library can be read for free.  You'll also find music on CDs, movies on DVDs, and plenty of books.  All of these resources are cheaper than magazines, bookstores, or Netflix.

3.  Read on the Web.  Lots of magazine content is available online.  Plus, there are plenty of bloggers who are writing magazine-like articles.  It's all free with your web connection.
