I was wondering if there was anybody else who has bought an subscription started receiving the magazines and than doesn't have time to read them and keeps them to read later... Unfornately I'm one of those people. I have magazines from a year ago I haven't read yet but still keep them for in hopes of reading them soon.
Do you think it's a waste of space? Or do you think I should just toss them because who cares of waht happen a year ago? Or do you think it could have some useful information in them and I should keep them?
So what is your opinion on them? Do you have passed magazines? And if you do how old are yours? Also do you think that saving magazines can actually be a wise investment instead of throwing them out?
If we look at the last question there's a lot of old magazines now that are actually worth money. Such as old playboy magazines. Do you think it would have to be a certain kind or do you think all magazines are worth some sort of money in later dates?
Please feel free to discuss your opinions....

Daily i will at least a single magazine. But some day it's really impossible to read those magazines. I will buy and i will keep those magazines in bag and after coming from office to home i will forget to read and i will move to some other work or else i will move to sleep. So not every day but any one day.

I don't read a lot of magazines. Maybe once a month but lately it's been a while a long while since I bought another one. Thanks for sharing.

First, I am guilty as charged! I have magazines from two or three years ago that I am still trying to get to. I will admit that they are either teddy bear magazines or doll crafting mags. With the other magazines I keep them in the bathroom for reading later.
I have a whole book case full of old magazines (teddy bear mags mostly). I do have Family Circles from the 60's that are collectible. All older mags are worth money to someone somewhere. And yes, I feel that they all have useful information. I have found useful information in magazines that are over 30 years old, you just have to have an open mind about them. I would say that if there is something in the magazines that you want to read and there isn't anything else, rip the article out and recycle the rest of the mag. I do that with quite a few of the magazines that I get at the check out stand or the thrift shops.

NOw that sounds like me. I do like to keep some of the articles. That's mostly with my health ones. Thanks for making me not feel alone.
