\"Are<\/a>

This is just a small sampling of the magazines and catalogs we have.<\/p><\/div>\n

TODAY’S FREEBIE<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Are you a chronic magazine subscriber? Do you waste time looking through magazines or catalogs that you don’t really love? Do you have a stash of old catalogs that you are keeping for no discernible reason? Guilty as charged.<\/p>\n

Every time a Chadwicks catalog comes in the mail, I look through it, even though each one is almost exactly like the previous one and even though I hardly ever order anything from them. I have a knee-high pile of religious magazines that I have read, but will never read again. I’ve got B&H catalogs for photographic equipment that sit forlornly on my office shelves. Why do I have all these things when I can easily find all this information online? It is time to stop using my house as a garbage can and get rid of all this unnecessary paper!<\/p>\n

I used to get two photography magazines. I really liked these, but realized some time ago that the stack was getting too high. So I went through each one and pulled out articles that I liked and put them all in a 3-inch binder. I have looked in that binder once. Don’t fall into this trap! It will just waste your time. Honestly, every article I kept contains information that I can easily and quickly discover on the internet.<\/p>\n

Dealing with magazines and catalogs is easy. Throw them all away<\/strong>. That’s it. The only exceptions I can think of is when you have personally been published in a magazine and feel the need to keep it, or if there is a particular magazine (a single issue) that brings you a great amount of joy. Otherwise, grab your recycle bin and fill it up!<\/p>\n

\"Are<\/a>
