I never saw "Antique's Magazine" and "Early American Life," my favorites, in a doctor's office.  Have been subscribing to them over 30 years. 

 

Other than those, I look at what doctor's have in the office, but don't subscribe to them.

I haven't been to a doctor's office in 3-4 years.  I don't really read magazines unless I can access them online.

wait for a trip to the doctor's office in order to read your favorite magazine? Or take "a peak" at one while waiting in a checkout line?🤫 Do you have a subscription? What's your favorite magazine? 🤔

None of the above. If there is a magazine I get some good information from, I buy!

No magazines due to C-19.  I keep up with my magazines online with Apple News.  I enjoy looking thru Food Network, Vanity Fair, People, among others.  My DH enjoys bicycling mags.  It works for us.

Even before Covid I wouldn't touch a magazine or "community" pen any place, now - forget about it.

Don't you take any prescriptions ?

I haven't seen a magazine in a dr office, hair dresser, or anywhere since the pandemic.  I had a People subscription but realized that I was receiving emails and text alerts with the same headlines/stories and just cancelled the subscription.  So many of the "celebrities" they report on these days are people I've never even heard of!

 

I used to like Good Housekeeping and Glamour back in the day.

My dentist and doctors offices removed magazines quite some time ago. I think it was at the beginning of the pandemic.  I always take a book or puzzle books with me.  The only magazine I subscribe to is Consumer Reports.
