Does anybody subscribe to any magazines in Ireland?

I'm in America for 6 months and have subscribed to Sports Illustrated and FHM. Sports Illustrated is a 90 page magazine every week. 26 issues delived to my door - $20.

And FHM (I'm sure ye're all well aware of what this is), 6 issues $10.

The prices of these in the shops is about $5 each for sports illustrated and $7 each for FHM. The subscription price saves a ridiculous amount of money.

IS there any cheap subscriptions in Ireland? These's one UK one I found but even that is pretty rubbish. Link is below. Have a look at the American Prices (prepare to get sick)

Actually the "Rip off Ireland" argument doesn't really apply here (although in other areas I'd agree) we can get dirt cheap subscriptions of loads of mags. I know that an annual sub to The Economist works out at around a third of what you'd pay buying it weekly in the shops and you get free access to all its online content.

It's well worth whatever the cost is (not sure myself?). The articles are well-witeen, yet comprehendable to a normal person, they are very good with analysing events rather than solely reporting them and the online facilities are great. For example, i get e-mails weekly about subjects of my choice, be it Politics, or one specifically about events in London/New York/LA, your choice.
