Newsweek
Readers Digest
National Geo

then +1 gets Bon Appetite

I just wrote RD, they try to trick you into paying after you have already paid so they can add another year. Their billing methods are borderline scams. Anybody else notice that?

With most mags, if you don't receive your "RENEW NOW" notice two weeks before your third issue somebody isn't doing their job.

I worked with a guy some years back who wasn't the brightest bulb in the lamp.
When he'd get the 'it's time to renew' he'd just write the check and send it in.
After a while it dawned on him that he thought 'geez, didn't I just pay that" and went back through his check receipts.
He finally called the car mag and found out he had paid up his subscription for something like 14 years.

Let's see...

AARP
Air and Space
Fine Scale Modeler
IPMS Journal
Playboy
Yankee

While I don't subscribe to it, delivery is way slower than newstand availability, I also get Historical Miniatures.

+1 gets Fine Gardening and one or two other gardening mags.

I currently get Road&Track, Excellence (porsche magazine) and Hemmings Sports&Exotic. I'm planning on adding Forza to my subscr. list this year. I've gotten a lot of car magazines over the years and Hemmings sports&exotic is the best car mag. I've read, anyone who is into older soprts and exotics shoild check it out.
