Tip 29: Drop newspapers and magazines
There is lots of free news and articles available on the internet. Dropping the daily newspaper was one of my first reactions a few years ago in the economic downturn around 2008. I like getting a newspaper, but it is not really necessary for me. I still buy a Saturday newspaper most weekends- I like the coupons, and having newspaper around is handy for starting fires and to use to protect surfaces during painting projects.I still get a few magazines, many subscriptions work out to about $1 per issue. Magazine subscriptions were another area that I cut back in 2008. I had gradually subscribed to more magazines without eliminating any and was receiving more than I actually read every month. I liked them all, but did not need them all. There are all kinds of interesting things you can read on the internet free at any time. Tip #101 has a good suggestion for free reading material that can help replace newspapers or magazines.
