Jamie Magazine launched by celebrity chef
Jamie Oliver to launch own magazine
(link via guardian.co.uk)
I'm a big fan of Jamie Oliver but I rarely buy any magazines now. They are just too expensive for what you get. I also used to subscribe to quite a few magazines but the only one I continue subscribing to is Mslexia magazine.
I'll be very surprised if Jamie Oliver's magazine does well, considering the current financial crisis. I might buy the first issue out of curiosity though.
Have you stopped buying and/or subscribing to magazines? If not, which magazines do you still buy or subscribe to?
There's far too many of them, and they're mostly all pictures and adverts!
ReplyDeleteI buy the Radio Times, and a friend passes on a few aviation magazines. xx
I agree about all the adverts - sometimes it seems like that's all there is in the magazines! And they are very pricey for what you get.
ReplyDeleteI get National Geographic because my parents bought me a life subscription many years ago - wonderful investment!
ReplyDeleteI also get Wired, and DH gets Wooden Boat.
All 3 get read from cover-to-cover.
We used to get MacWorld, and I dropped the kids' version of National Gepgraphic because it has too much advertising and the version sold through schools is tons better.
I grew up reading National Geographic because my dad subscribed to it. It is an excellent magazine. You are very lucky to get a life subscription - what a fantastic gift from your parents!
ReplyDeleteSaga Magazine
ReplyDeleteA life subscription bought at 60 - now 70 and it would still be worth buying even if I had to pay the full price.
BBC Gardeners World. A Years subscription for a Christmas Present every year.
Just those two - love them both.

Mrs K, I have a weakness for all the gardening magazines but I haven't bought any for a long time. You are very lucky to have a gift subscription to BBC Gardeners' World!
