    yep i would give them to a school or kinder or something.

    i always remember doing a health class in year 7, and having to cut out pics of healthy things.. yet the magazines had like nothing left in them! otherwise doctors surgeries etc

    my mum often buys magazines from op shops... i have a heap of perfectly good scrapbooking/pregnancy/parenting mags that she paid 50c for!

    Depends what they are - I guess cooking/home stuff to an opshop, gossipy type ones to a school if they use them for collages - but don't give your mags with sex advice or anything like that to a kindy! I'd say op-shop or recycle those.

    I used to work in a doctors surgery & we always appreciated donations of magazines, even old 4WD ones!! We had a big turnover of magazines as people tear articles out of them, ask to take them home, kids throw them around the waiting room etc. So I'd take them to your local GPs.
