Who doesn’t love a good mail day right? I love ARCs, letters from friends, B&N and Amazon packages, and magazines but yesterday I was a bit surprised to receive the latest issue of Vogue magazine.
Vogue? At first I thought it was for a neighbor but no, it is addressed to me. I just wonder why I got it. I enjoy some fashion magazines (Allure & Marie Claire) but I don’t read them regularly and I definitely don’t subscribe to them.
You know why I don’t? Those dreaded perfume strips! Ugh. Due to my allergies I really don’t want strong scents in my home and half of the time those perfume strips are definitely strong. I did a quick flip of this issue and of course I saw three of those strips right away.
Anyway, I have no idea how I got this magazine. You know what I would have preferred instead of Vogue? A crafty magazine! Oh, I would have liked that. So what fun surprises have arrived in your mailbox lately?
I would take a free Vogue any day!
A complimentary copy? Or maybe a gift subscription from a friend? I rarely read fashion magazines nowadays; give me books anytime! 🙂
Oh, yes, I hate those perfume strips!
I’m with you – I would love a crafty magazine or even one about books or food, rather than a fashion magazine. I just throw the perfume strips too.
Does anyone appreciate those perfume strips? I got an ARC in the mail yesterday, and I was excited–until it turned out to be a title that didn’t interest me at all.
I love a good mail day too. 🙂 Vogue isn’t my type of magazine either. I wonder if it was a complimentary issue? It took me a moment to figure out what I was suddenly receiving Woman’s Day. I guess my mother got me a subscription. I read Entertainment Weekly and Bookmarks regularly, but that’s about it. There’s a reason I don’t subscribe to any other magazines.
