I don't want to rain on anyone's parade here, but I have finally, after 37 years, learned that the "free gifts" on magazines are just about useless: flip flops that break, mascara that doesn't dry, teeshirts that bag after one wash, umbrellas that break when you open them, and seeds that you wouldn't buy for yourself. So I no longer buy mags on the strength of the free gifts.

So that leaves a magazine for £7.99 ... you can get a good book for that, which isn't full of adverts. Or several books from your library for nowt, and spend the 8 squid on beer!
