$5 Magazine Sale: People, Real Simple, All You & More
This is my most favorite magazine sale and it only happens a few times a year (affiliate links used in this post). Stock up for you, buy gifts for everyone on your list, go wild because at just $5 a subscription, you can buy a year’s subscription for just the cost of one magazine.
(A few of the magazines are weekly, so those are $5 for 26-28 weeks).
We love, love, love magazines in our house and I typically wait for sales like this to subscribe, renew my subscriptions, etc.
The best deal is for People Magazine – get 6 months for just $5. A year-long subscription on Amazon is $62, so that is a pretty significant savings! Moreover, I have never seen this sale offer SIX MONTHS for $5. Last time it was just 12 weeks.
I cannot get over it! SUCH a good deal.
My other top picks:
- All You– 1 Year: This magazine has tons of coupons, recipes, tips, etc. You will make your money back in the first issue you receive. If you only buy one magazine in this sale, buy this one. You won’t be disappointed, and like I said, at $5, the magazine will pay for itself (in coupons) in the first issue.
- Real Simple – 1 Year: This is one of my favorite magazines. I think every home in America needs a subscription to this magazine that contains inspiration for organization, recipe, inspiring feature stories and more.
- Entertainment Weekly – 26 Weeks: This has long been one of Matthew’s and my favorite magazines. If you like entertainment, this is the magazine for you. Great writing, great stories, a great gift!
- InStye – 1 Year: Perfect for the friend or family member who is interested in trends, style and celebrities. This magazine is BIG every month, so for just $5, you are getting a lot for your money.
- People StyleWatch– 1 Year: Perfect for the friend or family member who is interested in style and celebrities.
- Cooking Light – 1 Year: A great magazine for anyone who loves to cook. One of my goals for the summer is to try more recipes from Cooking Light.
- Southern Living – 1 Year: I love the home design and lifestyle stories in this magazine. Perfect for the home lover – regardless of where they live!
- Sports Illustrated – 28 Weeks: Perfect for the sports lover in your life. Another one that is just 6 months, but still a great deal.
- Sports Illustrated for Kids– 1 Year: Perfect for the young sports lover. I love giving kids magazines because it is a gift they seem to especially enjoy all year. I think I am going to order this for Elias. I figure, for $5 it is low-risk if he doesn’t like it.
- Time – 12 Weeks: Perfect for someone interested in news, research and lifestyle pieces.

When gifting magazines, you can do it a few ways:
- Write a card and simply include a message that says watch your mailbox for a subscription to XYZ. I hope this blesses you all year!
- Buy a copy of the magazine and wrap it up with a note
- Buy a copy of the magazine and include it as part of a larger theme gift (ie: slippers + bath soap as a relax and enjoy gift)
Go snatch up a bunch of subscriptions today! These subscriptions will be a blessing to anyone you buy them for – and they will bless you too, because how can you resist not ordering a few for yourself? 🙂
Also, be sure to pay attention that these subscriptions will auto renew, so if you don’t want to pay “retail” subscription prices, make a note in your calendar to cancel before the renewal date. I always put an alert in my phone to make sure I am not charged. Super simple!
This sale is only going on through June 17, so don’t delay.
I love Mags, too. I had 10 subscriptions at once a few years back. I am a self proclaimed mag addict. LOL. what about for Canadians? does this sub work for us, too?
I’m not sure. Perhaps you could contact customer service?
Real Simple for me, This Old House for the husband. Done and done. 🙂
