Memorandum Monday
It's the first time I've joined in with this this year.
It's hosted by the lovely Sian over at From High in the Sky.
Share something that your learnt over the weekend.
Here's what I found out.....
Vogue magazine is a waste of money.
I got to page 60 something in one magazine and 232, Yes! 232 in another
before I even got to the Letter from the Editor page.
It's all adverts and a complete waste of paper.
It may look like a big bumper edition but what it really is a pile adverts for clothing and accessories that the typical woman in the street couldn't afford.
There were one or two articles and a few pages about home decor and not a lot else.
Thankfully I managed to get these free as there is no way I would ever pay for them.
My brother used to bring me an American Vogue when he was coming home and I did feel guilty about him carrying half a hundred weight of paper!
ReplyDeleteYes, sadly most magazines are overly advertisements these days. I remember the good old days when Southern Living was rich with articles, but I recently saw an issue and there is so much less than there used to be. I just don't subscribe to magazines anymore.
ReplyDeleteI use to subscribe to several magazines, sadly most no longer publish. I borrow magazines from our local library, that way I get to choose from a variety & then I do not have to feel guilty when I toss out. Nice photo of Adele on the cover of Vogue.
