Thread: Magazine Collections

Tweet

Funny I just starting subscribing to street rodder(this week), after reading the article in it on Ken's RPU. I also just subscribed to classic trucks magazine. I find the adds help me locate parts, and it's nice to see what other people come up with, but I figure I'm not the collecting sort, so it will probably be just during the truck build that I keep the subscriptions.
Ken I will keep my eye out for a 77 issue with your car in it!

....You know what 'irks' me about magazine subscriptions is as soon as you subscribe & get your first issue they start sending you 're-newal' letters! "last chance for this price to re-subscribe"!!! "HURRY, you subscription is due to expire soon"!!! As if I didn't get enough 'junk' mail as it is!!! Plus when your subscription starts they usually send you 2 to 3 issues to start. Yeah, so you get a new one AND the last two that you already bought at the news stand!!! So actually your only getting 9 or 10 issues for the price of one year..... Anyway, that's why I hate subscriptions!!! Bill

I hate all those inserts they slip into each magazine, no matter how many you pull out and toss, there are still some that keep falling out on you as you read it. How many subscription offers do they need to put per copy? I would think one would do it.

I used to subscribe to a magazine that sent so moany subscription renewals that I got lost as to how long my subscription was good for, at one point I probably resuscribed 2 times in a six month period. I finaly stopped the subscription, because it drove me nuts!
Don I know what you mean too. Although just recently I found a great new use for them. Since the dentist put a new crown in, I have a small gap between two teeth that collects food. Those little inserts make great dental floss!

actually if you look at your address label your expiration is printed there.

Ken they are so tricky with that sort of thing! I bet this is like the tabs on the foil box keeping the roll from flying out, been there all along, but never knew it!
Ken how is Tina doing? Did you guys get the car fixed yet(fomt the accident)?
