Title: MD - Limited Circulation?
Post by: columbusdude82 on June 08, 2008, 05:53:31 PM
For the past two months, I haven't found MD on the shelves at my local Target and grocery stores. Have they cut down on their circulation? Is there another explanation?

Surely copies of MD don't sell out that quickly at all the stores!

Yeah I can't find MD ANYWHERE...

Maybe they employ selective distribution to raise product exclusivity.  ;)

Publix hasn't had it either in FL.   Very odd.

The same thing may be happening with Flex, but I'm not sure since I don't always look for Flex on the shelves.

Funny thing is, those smaller bbing/fitness publications are still there in force...

It could also be that demand is outweighing supply at the moment.  ;)

Muscular Development is everywhere! They sold them at the Canex in Meaford when I was training there, at the PX in Fort Bliss, Texas when we were there training for a month, and recently at the Canex in Waynewright, Alberta during 'Maple Guardian' (another month of training).

I love MD - the photography and articles are the best around

Really?  You mean the two copies my university bookstore brought in weren't enough to meet demand?  That's odd because the copy I didn't buy would always sent back to the publisher at the end of the month.

hi romano

everyone who advocates MD is Romano?  He doesn't need to hide behind a fake name. 

I know you're paid by Flex to advocate them over MD, but the fact is if you're not finding MD on your newsstands, why not just subscribe?  Sounds like someone from the Flex camp is getting nervous by starting this bullshit thread.

MD sells out quickly followed by Flex, and Ironman at the Wal-Marts in Memphis. Flex is available in about any major store. MuscleMags never sell. They were on special sell for $1.50.

Stores stock whatever the head department sends them. Not a very dependable way to get a mag. Go to a bookstore, you can read it there too. ;D
