Cross the expense of magazine subscriptions or those individual copies that you pick up at the check out line. The truth is that you really never, ever have to pay for magazines ever again.
Visit Your Local Library
You local library probably has a wide selection of magazines to browse or borrow. Many libraries are coming on board with Zinnio, providing their patrons with free digital magazine subscriptions. Best or all, these digital magazines can be taken anywhere you would bring a mobile device, and they will never contribute any clutter in your home.

Back in October, I flipped through the latest (at that time) copy of Taste of Home Magazine while waiting for my husband to check out something or other at the Home Depot. My eyes landed on a recipe for Pumpkin Whoopie Pies, a treat that my kids would go crazy for (they love picking them up when we visit an Amish area. I was very tempted to purchase this special addition of the magazine that would have cost me close to $6. I’m glad I didn’t. I was able to easily find the same recipe on the magazine’s website.
Sign up for Free Magazine Subscriptions
There is probably not a magazine out there that you can’t get for free eventually. Over the years, I’ve had free full-year subscriptions to print magazines that include: All You, Women’s Day, Scientific American, the Wall Street Journal (newspaper), Better Homes and Gardens, Living Simple, Organic Gardening, Ladies Home Journal, Shape Magazine, Forbes, Kiplinger’s, Family Circle, Martha Stewart Living, Family Fun, Parenting, American Baby and more.
To get free magazine subscriptions, pay attention to freebie websites and sign up for the magazines when offers become available. Legitimate offers won’t ask for a credit card or any kind of other offers to fulfill. They just want to build subscriber numbers, and they do this by giving away a certain number of free magazine subscriptions.
