If I don't read RW from cover to cover within a day or two of getting it in the mail, I don't end up reading it. Maybe times have changed, what with computers and iPads and such - it's not that I don't read, but I have other ways of reading? And yes, RW's constant emails get old.

I think he'd miss having magazines in there! I actually don't read it as much as I should, but I got a deal online for RW for $5 a year, so I bought like 5 yrs worth. I will be getting it for a long time. I did cancel some other magazines I used to get.

I have a very bad habit of reading while I'm eating, so that's when I read my magazines. I would definitely unsubscribe if I wasn't reading them, though. I also get Women's Health but will let that subscription lapse.
