Amazon had a deal at Christmas to get Sports Illustrated for $5 a year. So I get that.

Nothing for me. Might occasionally pay for Sports Illustrated. I had a subscription to the Dayton Daily News last year for Thursday through Sunday only for like $13/month. Just felt like a waste of time. I do enjoy reading it at work and have also always loved USAToday.

A friend of mine has gotten me "guest" subscriptions to Buckeye Sports Bulletin the last couple years. That's about it and the only reason I have that is because someone else is providing it. I can get anything I might want online nowadays, so I haven't really seen the purpose of having subscriptions to things for some time.

My father gets me an annual subscription to Sports Illustrated as a birthday present each year for the last 15 years.

I don't bother subscribing to newspapers anymore. They've shrunk to the size of a neighborhood newspaper that comes out once a week, and I'm not paying the increasing costs for less to read.

Newspaper: Washington Post Weekend Edition and Online.
Wife cuts all the coupons on Saturday and saves us a about $5-$10 each week. So, the subscription pays for itself within a month or two.

Magazines: I've had a Foreign Affairs subscription since 2004. I had SI and ESPN from the 90s to just a few years ago. No time to read them now a days.
