Then, for awhile I just perused the magazine, looking at the list of coupons, putting the mag back on the rack. Nah, nothing worth even looking at it, so I never have since then.Practical Parsimonyhttp://ww.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-76976222315075939712012-02-08T16:07:22.788-05:002012-02-08T16:07:22.788-05:00Mark--Just don't go there on a Weekend!

There would always be juxtaposing headlines like..."Lose 10 lbs. this weekend on our crash diet" and "6 To Die For cake recipes"<br />WTF?!?!<br /><br /><br />One Family--I suspish that as extreme couponing became a "fad" and the Manus started shrinking the Qs and amounts, it is reflected in this Q 'zine too.

The articles are ok, gives me something to read when I am bored, but I mainly subscribed (when I found good subscription deals) for the coupons and they have been pretty sad of late. My subscription just ran out and I don't plan on renewing.One Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00369132659573259613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-48582588896552548372012-02-08T11:05:15.624-05:002012-02-08T11:05:15.624-05:00You summed up most of my feelings about this magaz...You summed up most of my feelings about this magazine. The frugality tips in particular never fail to amuse me -- yes, you will save money if you don't go out for lunch every day and wear clothes you already own rather than constantly buy new stuff, but there's nothing particularly profound about that! I was able to subscribe for $1 per issue, so the subscription more than pays for itself, but I generally only use $3 worth of All You coupons in any given month so I won't bother renewing if the price goes up. <br /><br />The banality of the articles combined with lots of advertisements for beauty products that are somewhat higher-end annoys me and amuses me at the same time, as the underlying message might be interpreted as "pack your husband's lunch so you can spend that $10 on face cream."Hopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00721310167565547804noreply@blogger.com
