Do you collect magazines and/or catalogs?


Recommended Posts

I used to have about 5 years worth of Sonlight catalogs and I finally threw them out in the "Great Purge". And now I'm sitting here wishing I still had them.

 

I also collected Practical Homeschooling magazines because I did like to go back and read articles. But I threw them out as well. I'm kind of bummed here!

 

And I had all 3 editions of TWTM and got rid of the first two. What was I thinking??

I also had lots of Sunlight catalogues and tons of homeschool mags and decluttered them all. Haven't missed them. I didn't know that there are now 3 editions of TWTM, I just got rid of my first edition but still have the 2nd.

 

I am trying not to miss anything that I have tossed, it is the only way that I can toss stuff.

You were thinking that you don't want to become a hoarder! Remember the curricula are always being update. 5 year old catalogs are out of date.

 

Good for you for purging! Give a bit and you'll be fine with not having them around. Whatcha gonna put in all that empty space now?

Got rid of all my homeschooling catalogs this year after I bought curriculum. I am not a magazine person, either. I got rid of a bunch of books recently, too. I am trying not to miss them. ;)

I love magazines and buy them used for $0.70 a piece. In theory I will clip the articles I want and toss the rest. Someday.

 

I love to leaf through magazines. I even read my DH's game magazines and I am barely competent to play the latest Mario games. *sigh* I played Super Princess Peach when I was on bedrest though.

Is there where I confess that I still have a stack of the (sadly now defunct) Common Reader catalogs?

 

I could see keeping WTM, 1st edition, as well as the more current edition. The first edition suggested a lot of good titles for all three stages of history as it was written before SWB wrote most of her SOTW and HOTW books.
