Magazines

[Scout19075]

Does anyone know when all of the Christmas magazines start coming out?

No idea of date but I've got the October Marie Claire here and the November issue comes out on the 3rd Oct.

So I'm guessing the December ones anytime 3rd-10th November.

(I get really unreasonably narked when the January ones come out in December with all their diet/gym/horoscopes articles. I don't open them till after 27th Dec)

What ones do you buy

I don't usually buy magazines (unless Steam Train and Alphablocks both for SmallBoy, who will be four next month count) but there are usually ones out that are just for Christmas not the normal monthly ones that come out with a Christmas edition. I noticed a lot of craft magazines with their Christmas stuff out this month and it got me all excited.

I think craft ones come out mega early so you can get started (like Hobbycraft have Christmas Cardstock in July or something to give you time)

I only buy Magazines when I'm on holiday TBH, I don't have time or inclination to read them (the MarieClaire isn't mine)

Woman and Home
Good Housekeeping
Sainsburys magazine

and I'm going to sit down with a huge mug of coffee and toast&marmalade at the table and just plough through them.

Then comes the Christmas TV Times

I love craft magazines but have the time/space to utilize them properly any more so save my money and spend way too much time on MN and pinterest to get ideas. But I do love the magazines that are just focused on Christmas -- decorations, crafts, food, etc.
