The Economist

Just wondering if anyone knows how you can subscribe to The Economist with student discount.

I've found this site: http://www.student-subscription-service.co.uk/magazine-the-economist.asp

However, it says 3-4 weeks for delivery, so not much good.

Any suggestions welcome.

If you're doing economics at uni then ask your tutors, as my uni when I did it had some little flyers to fill in to get loads of discount.

55 percent off the cover price here

By direct debit, quarterly

You can get a 62% discount, just ring the subscription line up.

You usually just have to send off proof that you are a student - a photocopy of your student card would do.

Even better, why not just read/loan the copy at your uni library? I've been doing that with new scientist for the past 2 years...

just phone the subscription service, or look on economics dept of University as they usually leave flyers for it.

Also the 3-4 weeks delivery is just for the first issue, arrives every friday morning on the day it in the shops

The public library will probably have a copy.

i subscribed a couple weeks ago, after accidentally letting the old subscription lapse (they send you regular reminders starting 6 months before the subscription runs out, so i just kept ignoring them), and the first issue arrived in a week, the same day as the invoice.
