Not long ago, Aristocrat Style was a favorite of fashion-forward genteel men, featuring articles such as “Four Essential Gloves for Seasonal Face-Slapping.” Behold how much local-interest magazines have evolved with today’s Groupon: for $6, you get a one-year subscription to Sactown magazine (normally $12 when subscribing online, and up to $24 based on the cover price). A one-year subscription to the award-winning bimonthly publication delivers six issues straight to your door.

Sactown, winner of four Maggie Awards in 2010, brilliantly covers the best food, art, shopping, politics, travel, architecture, and a broad range of events going on in the area. The design-savvy young mag wows subscribers with page-turning stories, stunning photography, and innovative ways to engage readers, including a scratch-and-sniff cover that inspired awe from the New York Times. Take a one-to-four-eyed peek inside the most recent issue to learn about the best sandwiches of 2011; check out a feature on Sacramento's Sister Crayon; take a look inside stylish new Sacramento building projects; and read about the city's most entertaining festivals, outdoor activities, beer professors, and interesting peeps.

You may use your Groupon to add an additional year to an existing subscription.
