Practical Parenting or Prima Baby magazine?

Options
I want to treat myself to a magazine subscription with my Tesco clubcard points in the hope I'll get a chance to read it once the baby is born. :D I'm not going to be going on any holidays or day trips any time soon. I have the choice of Practical Parenting or Prima Baby.

Does anyone already subscribe to these magazines? Do you get any free gifts or money off vouchers inside?

TIA. :beer:

    Can't remember about free gifts, etc., but I thought Practical Parenting was a GREAT magazine.

    practical parenting was the one I used to get..loved it! You get quite a few freebies with the issues like bath books, thing plastic mat things, bibs, cds, rattles you know things like that.

    I cancelled a subscription to prima baby as I found it full of adverts and with very little content to actually read. A few gifts here and then but not great ones that made the mag better value. HTH

    Practical parenting is a more down to earth read, imo prima baby was more aimed at so called yummy mummy earth types who have more money than sense.

    Practical parenting has good freebies and you still get them when subscribed
