Buying the mag this way can cost as little as £2.49 per month (compared to £4.99 per issue in the shops) and the US prices are a bargain too. Keep your eyes open for regular offers. On most formats there's a 30-day free trial on subscriptions - 14 days on Nook - so you can see what it's like before you buy!
