Free Trade Magazines


http://www.yourtradepubs.com/cgi-bin...FRevgAodiD9FFA

I clicked on one of the google ads on this site for free trade magazines and it led me to this site. A bunch of mag's for free. Can someone else see if they are for real and not just a way to add you to a mailing list?

To tell the truth, I would rather get regular old junk mail than spam email.

I have subscribed to a few vendors from contractor business magazine that sent me inventory list/price lists on cd, it is what it is....advertisement. But it is always good to have as many resources as possible!

The most informative freebie I receive is Replacement Contractor. Check them out online @ www.replacementcontractor.com which is one of the Hanley Wood publications, who also publish JLC, Journal of Light Construction magazine. They are one of the links here on Nathans CT forum.

Ed, JLC is the only one that they charge for. I think I get 2 or three other ones from them. Coastal contractor, Tools of the Trade?, Remodler_____, think I am missing one.

I love magazines when the price is correct, if I have to look at 80 pages of ads, the price should be free.

Yeah, JLC is about 19 buck per year, but all the other ones are free.

Free is good, but I usually have ordered "stuff" from the vendors advertising good educational materials.

Can never have too much "stuff"
