Frugal Magazine Gift Idea!

I have been posting so many magazine deals, because they are so cheap and are such a good gift to give! Plus, the person that you gave it to will think about you all year long as they get the magazine each month!

If you order now, you might not get the magazine to the person in time for Christmas, so this is what I do. Well, this is what I do anyway with the magazine to make a better presentation.

I go out and buy the current issue of the magazine that I am giving. In this case it was Taste of Home. Funny, a single edition cost as much as the entire year!

Then I tied it up with a bow and added the spatula and wisk to go along with the cooking theme. Now, you could just put it in a cute bag like this depending on who you are giving it to. This one if for a close friend and so I spent a little more money and bought a cook book to go along with it.

I am wrapping up The Pioneer Woman Cookbook with the Taste of Home Magazine, wisk and spatula, I am including a note that says they are getting the subscription and it will start coming in January. This entire gift cost UNDER $20! 

Just adapt what you tie to the magazine for what magazine you are giving. For example…

Seventeen Magazine – add makeup, hair stuff, gift card to Old Navy

Rolling Stone – CD, iTunes gift card, ear phones

Shape – ear phones ( for working out), protein bars, 30 day trial to a gym

I am sure you get the idea, you can make them so cute and it is a fun gift that keeps giving all year long!
