We're carrying revenue in that satchel. So it's mostly a burden for you. And that it is. I now get one monthly magazine and I barely get through it before the next one comes up. When I used to subscribe to New Yorker (weekly), I came to see it as a big pile of guilt.Murr Brewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03422638986410813520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-17138915985992597432014-02-10T13:59:39.687-08:002014-02-10T13:59:39.687-08:00I must admit I loved the catalogues, especially.

As you say, they no longer mean me when they write their articles and I simply get bored with them.<br /><br />Mind you, I do subscribe to one monthly, mainly because I get it at reduced cost. It’s also aimed at ‘old people’. I never leave it lying around though, too embarrassing.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-90783175276212853362014-02-10T09:13:32.765-08:002014-02-10T09:13:32.765-08:00Smile...We don't have children who sell us any...Smile...We don't have children who sell us anything around here; so, in a sense, we have lost that connectivity with the younger age that magazines give you.
