That’s like $7 a gallon. I can get off road for close to $5, just a tad over.

Lucky your not in AUS it would be closer to $60 given our current prices.
We are getting screwed on diesel prices with it currently $2 a gallon dearer than 93.

Diesel was 25 bucks for 5 and the magazine 13 bucks with tax! Had not bought the Old West mag in a good while and while it had some good articles did not know they went up that much. Told the checkout guy I didn't want a subscription....just the one magazine. I remember when diesel was cheapest fuel at the pumps back in the GREAT ol days! I don't know how the young folks are making it these days.

Yes! I don't buy as many magazines as I used to. The prices ARE ridiculous. I get my American Rifleman and American Handgunner; that's it.

The last time I got a magazine, I paid for more advertisements then articles...

We used to have magazines on coffee table, and end table by recliner. I just looked around and not a magazine in sight. No magazine subscriptions in a long time.

Last magazine I bought was a 17 rounder. It was way more than $13.

Makes me wonder, with the new Washington State magazine ban for mags over 10 I wonder if a magazine with more that 10 ads would be considered a “high capacity mag”. :lol: (Sorry, couldn’t resist)

Must have been the additional "high capacity" tax added to the price!
