Even in the age of clickbait, magazines can
entertain you during long commutes or waits at the doctor's office… but that's hardly all they do. Magazines inform us. They let us experience the lives of others. They offer easy-to-digest road maps to the happy, healthy people we want to be. So whether you're a
man or a
woman, a
parent or a
kid, Groupon offers a magazine subscription with your interests in mind.
Stay Informed
If you feel overwhelmed by the rapid pace of online journalism, consider a magazine subscription that offers a more big-picture view of
business news or
current events, as well as the latest advances in
science and
technology. Popular magazines like
Time,
The Economist, and
Popular Science allow you to read relevant, well-written news articles without chewing up all the data on your phone plan or developing eyestrain from staring at the screen too long. Of course, not all news needs to be uber-serious. If you prefer to unwind with a little
celebrity gossip from
Us Weekly, the latest
music releases, or what's new in the world of
fashion, you do you.
Learn a New Skill
Before there were online videos that encouraged DIYers, there were new magazines backed by experts that covered topics such as
home improvement and
souping up your car. Share this wisdom with your household by subscribing to
arts & crafts magazines such as
Crochet World or
cooking titles such as
Cook's Illustrated. Best of all, there's no comments section.
Better Yourself
If you're the type of person that gets inspired by to-do lists and long-term goals, consider browsing the
health,
sports, and
lifestyle selections.
Runner's World,
Women's Health, and
Garden & Gun are just a few of the possibilities. Or if you'd like to expand your worldview, pick up a
travel magazine for a thorough, detailed list of destinations to have a fun, spontaneous vacation—or a
history magazine for a mini-vacation to another time. Aspiring writers, meanwhile, can keep up with the latest
short stories being published by their contemporaries.
