I seem to remember my kids Primary school forced us a few years ago for an annual subscription.

 

Wasted 🤨

I had a big meal.

I read one cover to cover and I still had indigestion.

Haiz.

Now ''On-Line'' so many things to see,who still buy Magazines to read.?

Even Hard-Copies of Newspaper also sell lesser.

I subscribed as long as I could, coz they say I am the selected few who could stand a chance to win some big prize. So, I carry on subscribing to stay in the game. It reached to a stage when they say only a handful of people left (maybe less than 5) in the game and I am one of them. Til now I never heard of any winner announced.

A friend's boss won a Honda Civic hatchback many years back. That kinda makes things more exciting. Nope. I did not win too. 

I like the special bundle of hard covers books at discounted prices. Bot quite a few sets and enjoyed them. 

Can't say will miss RD. Content not as worthwhile and the price went up by a fair bit over the years as well. 

Still, it was a part of my growing up years and reading journey. 

Stay safe all 

Cheers

Readers Digest is one of those magazines, I learned English from.

Sad to see it go.
