    When the Clinique giveaway was on and also the Benefit lip glosses last time, and I bought more than the one copy I would read, I bought the mags, took the freebies out, resealed the bags and handed them out to likely looking candidates in the carpark of my local Sainsburys (I bought them from there, I dont just hang about in carparks!! LOL!!! ) several people were really chuffed to be given a free and current magazine and it made their day :)

    I did this too! :A
    Charity shops for the sales assistants to read, leave them in the train for others to read, I don't think doctors surgeries do them anymore? recycle...

    True, my doctor's surgery doesn't do them anymore, no idea why! But I always take a bok with me now, hate sitting around with nowt to read!

    Interestingly, the dentist still has mags, really posh ones like Tatler etc (I live in a posh area). :rotfl:
