I have a subscription, which always arrives on time. It is suitably packaged and has never been damaged in the post (touch wood). The packaging is eco-friendly and easy to dispose of.

I bought the subscription for my good friend on her 90th birthday, she is now reaching the 96 mark and the contents of the People’s Friend is ALWAYS a topic for discussion when we meet. It also bring her great joy and happiness.
I have submitted a letter to hopefully surprise her one of these weeks…. I do so hope it get published.

It’s really informative to have a daily email bulletin on all aspects of golf. Also I enjoy reading the magazine, especially for the review of equipment like the recent driver tests.

I am really happy that I can get weekly magazine and the special delivered as I am not always able to get out to pick them up

Have purchased My Weekly for over 40 years and although format has changed over the years still good value for money. Interesting articles, fiction and quizzes

Magazine delivery is one of the best, especially as it's not always possible to get to the shop to buy it.

Very unhappy that this month issue, due out today April 4th has not yet arrived
Probably due to easter holidays, but that should have been allowed for.
Normally very good as things usually arrive before due
Now 8th April, pocket novels arrived yesterday but people's friend special still hasn't arrived
Very unhappy
This magazine finally arrived but as I was away for a couple of days I don't know exactly when, but it was almost, if not exactly a week after the publication date.
I remain dissatisfied and hope it won't happen again

I have purchased the people's friend specials, every month for over 10 years,
I enjoy the mix of fiction, fact and cookery often keeping recipes to use again.
It's inspirational, keeps up with the times and modern thinking especially on environmental issues.

I find it an easy way to get the Scots magazine each month without searching in a shop. I have subscribed to the magazine this way for years and never had a problem. I look forward to reading the contents covering all of Scotland from history to now

My magazines are always punctual and in excellent condition. Having them arrive by post saves me time and having to work out if I'll be lucky enough to find any left in the shops....especially when reading a serial!!!
