The inserts are annoying enough but when they have perfume in them they drive my allergies into high gear.

Oh, wow, if you subscribe,you should know that most big magazines offer scent-free subscriptions. You'll find the info on the page where they give all the details about editors, publisher, mailing address, phone numbers. My husband is very allergic to scents so all the magazines we subscribe to are the scent-free versions. (Makes you wonder how expensive the split run can really be, if they can make just a small percentage of the magazines scent-free.)
