Thanks to everyone who responded. I particularly like the missing issues bank idea!

 

I’m so disappointed that I.D. has folded. Thank you Lori for pointing that out to me. I must have missed the notification somehow.

 

Thanks again,

Jaime Hammond

I.D. Magazine has folded, and Print magazine is being substituted for the remainder of your subscription.

 

To answer your larger question, we circulate any random issues we receive to see if anyone is interested in subscribing, and if not then we toss them.

Hi everyone,

 

I was wondering what you do when you receive a random magazine in the mail. We recently received a copy of Print magazine, a graphic design publication, that we don’t subscribe to. I have no clue where it came from.

 

Do you typically hold on to these types of things, pass them on to interested parties, or toss them?

 

Thanks so much!

Jaime Hammond
