Scientific American, Discover, and MAD.

I subscribe to the first two out of habit - grew up in the age of magazines. I don't renew them continuously, but rather on and off depending on the specials running...

I could probably get them for nothing through some websites, but paying $10 or so per year for each is cheap enough so I don't bother with the freebie places; not really free, since they ask for a lot of info and often sell it to everyone under the sun.

The last one, MAD, I collect those and hence want the physical edition. I will likely never have to renew it, because I had just started a new 24 edition term when MAD switched to quarterly extending my subscription into 2013 ... the magazine part will likely be closed by then and become web-only, at which point I'll never bother with MAD again beyond continuing to collect the old print editions.
