I was wondering what magazines everyone out there enjoys reading. Do you have any subscriptions? I have two. First and foremost i am a Cosmopolitan girl
I have a subscription to Cosmo and I also have one to Redbook. I'm thinking about getting one for Lucky and Glamour as well. I am a Huge magazine fan
My mom has a subscription to Better Home and Garden and Martha Stewart Living. I LOVE those too
If i move out anytime soon- i'll definitely get the martha stewart one. i love it
What magazines do you enjoy reading???

Actually until a few days ago my answer would have been none. However I decided to order the following so I'm just waiting on my first issues


Chatelain
Flare
Homemaker Magazine

I'm thinking of getting a Readers Digest subscription too. I really enjoy that magazine.

I picked Flare because the images of the models give me ideas of things I can do for my 3d graphics hobby.

Chatelain because the recipes and articles. And Homemaker Magazine because of the recipes.

Back when I was in my 20's I used to read Cosmo all of the time and saved every issue too. I had stacks and stacks of them. When I got into my 30's I started to find the magazine rather lame. Way too many advertisements. Heck, I think the first articles don't start for something like 30 pages by the time you get past the table of contents and various ads.

Plus I got tired of all of the "how to please your man" articles and "how to get a ahead in your job" with some skinny hot model posed on the corner of a desk. Women are capable of so much more than office jobs, and they don't seem to want to address that because working as a welder or a plumber and getting paid $40.00 an hour isn't glamourous or the image that Cosmo wants to portray. They are all about beauty and fashion and with that goes "office work."

I do however buy one issue per year and that's January for the bedside astrologer section. Though I didn't buy one this year because they changed it so much and all of the good stuff that was in it is gone. So I doubt I'll be even buying that one issue anymore.

I save all of my Cosmos too
I also saved all of my Teen and Seventeen magazines when i was younger. They're all filed away and stored alphabetically. I'm saving them for someday when I have a daughter (and she's old enough and mature enough to read them).
I'm also saving some of my clothes,shoes, etc just a few favorites too

I've never been a big magazine person. The only one that I get now that I subscribed to myself is Cross Country Stitching, a cross stitch pattern mag. I think the subscription just ran out on it and I'm honestly not too upset about it.

I also get Glamour and Southern Living. Both subscriptions were gifts. Sometimes they get read or flipped through, sometimes they don't. I'm more of a book person.

Food & Wine Magazine and Bookmarks are the only 2.

I use to LOVE Madamoiselle, but they went out of business years ago and I haven't found another girly mag since.
