Recycling unsold magazines

helathyfood_jan09.JPGThe latest issue of Healthy Food magazine trumpets the free magazine which comes with it  Turning the pack over you see it is the October issue of Healthy Food.  I see little value from including the old issue of the same title.  Also, bagging the magazine stops browsing and for food titles this is important.

    If its a good quality magazine there shouldn’t be a need to do this. If I was buying this magazine because I liked it I would already have the October issue and would feel cheated that I’m getting it for free when I’ve already bought it.

    I don’t have figures on bagged versus non-bagged magazines, but in my store I can summise non-bagged magazines sell better than bagged of the same title.

    Unless of course it has a REAL value offer.
