Why Should You Have A Magazine Subscription?

By Matthew Kerridge

Many people in all four corners of the world like to read magazines so that they are able to catch up on what is going on around them, as well as get the most recent information on their favourite stars and hobbies. This is great, but there is a way that you can get even more benefit from your favourite reads and this is by getting a magazine subscription.

Being able to save on the amount you spend on your favourite magazines is one of the bonuses and reasons why so many people choose to go for a subscription rather than purchasing each issue separately. You can get either free issues of your favourite reads or a percentage of the price taken away.

There are different payment options that are available when you wish to subscribe, this means that you are able to in many cases spread the cost of your purchase over many weeks, months or even a year. The kind of options you have available to you will be dependant on the person you are getting the subscription from.

Some magazines have storylines in or you may have to collect so many vouchers in order to get a gift or discount, and if you have spent weeks collecting then you would be disappointed to find that the magazine is no longer available from your newsagents, or that they are all sold out. The best way that you can avoid this is by having the subscription as there will always be the latest issue waiting for you when you get home or at your magazine store.

There are a lot of incentives that are given to subscription customers only. You will not only be paying more for the magazines separately but you will also miss out on these gifts that are given to say thank you by the company. The gifts that are regularly available at your vendor will sometimes be missing from the magazine because they have been stolen by dishonest people or lost, but you will find this will not happen with a subscription as your separate magazine will be sealed.

If you feel that you cannot make the newsagents every time a new magazine is out or you do not want the disappointment of certain issues being missing then you have the option of getting the delivery straight to your door. This will allow you to get every article even if you are out of the country at the time of release.

You may wonder why so many people read magazines instead of books. Well the main reasons are that they are cheaper, they are quicker to read, they relate to you in a more personal way and that you are not out of pocket, whether you decide to store the magazines or recycle them. You are also and more importantly able to keep an eye on how trends change or better ways that you are able to complete certain projects with information that is to date, rather than months or years old, and for those who like to see what the stars are doing, we are all aware that their status can change each week.

The free gifts that the magazines tend to offer are usually based around what is in at the time. It will enable you to get discounts and free items around the latest trends rather than you having such incentives that are dated.

A lot of issues magazines, especially those relating to items that you may want to collect will have a series of gifts that once all collected will be part of a set. You will not want to have one or two of them missing because you did not get to the shop before others, and also the free gifts on magazines are enticing to many so they will be the first to go. Rather than having to wait weeks for a replacement to be sent, you will know that you will have what you want when you want it.

Many people benefit from magazine subscriptions in many different ways, and this is something that you are able to do too. Why settle for the magazines at the back of the shelf that have the free gifts missing or have gaps in your collection when you can have a pristine copy delivered to your door or kept safe by the retailer of your choice until collection?
