Magazine subscriptions

[drowningbitbybit]

Im not one to religously buy magazines each and every month, but land-locked in london, surf magazines can be a bit tricky to get hold of

So a year ago, I took out on a subscription on Surf Europe. The subscription was quite a saving on buying each issue and there was a free leash with it, so it seemed like a good idea.

And ever since they keep sending me free stuff!

As well as the leash, I randomly got a parcel a few months back with a fleece, hat and flipflops. The hat and fleece were promptly nicked by Mrs DBBB, but the flipflops have been all over this autumn.

Then this morning, ANOTHER parcel (I recently re-newed the subscription) with another fleece, but bigger (maybe they knew the last one was a bit small and was nicked by the other half) and a Dakine tail pad

Seeing as the subscription was only 19 pounds, and everything they've sent has been real useful, Im making a profit

I know when i got Brent his subscription to Surfers Path he got a couple of free DVD's, no idea if they were anygood though, and no idea of hes got any freebies since....

Oh, I'd forgotten the DVDs...

I got sent DVDs every now and then too!

How many mags did you get for those 19pounds?

Every couple of months the local mall stocks on Surfing Magazine. It costs like 10 quid per magazine..

But if I could subscribe I would.

You should start selling them and subscribe to another one. Etc etc..you have a buisness

wow im going to subscribe to that. I noticed before that the subscribtions to Surf Europe were cheap and they offered free stuff like a leash or tail pad, but I never bothered because the magazine can be too slim. But I think i'll sign up for 6 months and see what I get - its like a lucky dip

I think its eight a year - so two and a half quid per magazine.
