Do You Recycle Old Magazines?
Most people subscribe to several magazines. They’re either discarded or put in a box in the attic or basement, only to be thrown away decades later (unless they’re comics or playboy magazines, in which case they’re hold their value).
But today I found a novel way to get rid of them. You sell them on Ebay! Here’s a link I saw today when looking for a book on horse racing. The seller sold last years Economist magazines for around $16 including shipping. Not a lot of profit, but atleast you’re not filling up a landfill and someone else is enjoying them.
I like to read several magazines, but some of them like National Geographic are not time sensitive. Might be cheaper to buy them off ebay!
