I am such a magazine junkie! I love love love all magazines, even the trashy celebrity gossip ones, and I don’t even know who half of the “celebrities” are. Now is a great time to get some as there are typically deals around the holidays. A gift magazine subscription is a great idea, and these are some cheap, great deals on discounted magazines. Also, when I have a few magazine subscriptions, like I do every year, it curbs the impulse purchasing at the supermarket. I’m never tempted to spend $5 or $6 on a magazine because I have a stack to catch up on at home. I like to purchase the discounted magazine subscription as a gift, then I purchase the latest issue at the store and give that with a card.

Amazon.com has some great magazine deals going on right now-thanks to Heidi at Hotcouponworld for making this awesome list!
Editor’s Note: I originally published this in November of 2011, and found it this morning. I randomly clicked about 20-30 of the magazines, and they were all still valid deals! So while this list was put together over a year ago, it still seems to be mostly valid. Just an FYI, in case you hit one that isn’t still $1 or less.
