    We have only had one caravan club magazine in 2024 and that was back in  February.. The camping club magazine arrives every month without fail. Something seems badly wrong with this clubs distribution system and it clearly can't be the royal mail in our case. Not that no magazine bothers me greatly.

     I am utterly amazed to discover the Club distributing hard copies of a monthly magazine. Magazines bought at the supermarket routinely cost upwards of £7 now.

    Why on earth is there not an online copy to cut cost? I really don't appreciate the clutter of paper copies.

    Simply opt out of receiving the paper copy in your preferences.

    There is an online copy here and as said you can opt out of a paper copy.

    But as this thread is about not receiving a copy there must still be interest in getting one?

    Regards to cost it has been said before that the magazine is self financing from the adverts inside.

    Have you expressed your utter amazement back to the club in the Have Your Say, Club Magazine Survey posted by Rowena on 31/05/25 in the Club Products & Services section of CT.

    Many thanks for the link. I had not found that (and still cannot see an obvious route to get to that link!) I can now cancel the hard copy! I don't "do paper" wherever I can avoid it. Just another thing to gather dust in a corner!!

    As to the magazine being self-financing that will be a moving target year on year. I wonder whether the assertion is still true? My concern is to drive down costs of membership.

    P.S. I have completed the online survey regarding the magazine.

    It It gets any thinner they will be able to save even more money by sending it out with pigeon post. For some it may well arrived in time that way!

    I wondered what was afoot when the previous couple of Magazines were not called "the Caravan and Motorhome Club Magazine" but merely "from the Caravan and Motorhome Club".

    Now we know. Our regular Magazine is in future merely a Flyer.
