Why is it so hard to stop buying papers & magazines?

  • Hello SCW1,
    A few years ago...when I was financially a bit dim...lol :D I used to buy Gardening magazines (two or three a month), Trout Fishing magazines (two per month), MGB & Sports Car magazines (two per month) as well as newspapers daily and on Sunday - phew...:rolleyes:

    The cost of these things is astronomic when you add it up over a year :p ...then I saw the light... halleluja (sp?) lol. :D I now share a weekly gardening newspaper (Garden News - very,very good) with one of my elderly near neighbours - she buys it for £1.50, reads it and then gives it to me - how wonderful is that... lol. :p In return I mow her front lawn - wey hey... :D

    Could you do something similar?
