Another bagged magazine bundle from Bauer

The bagged bundle of Cosmopolitan and OK! is frustrating. With OK! at the front the expectation is that we have it with weeklies. There’s no spare room there though. There is no point putting this with Cosmopolitan as it would look out of place. My understanding is supermarkets are paid for extra pockets. That we’re sent this additional ‘title’ imposes a cost burden on us that makes us less competitive.  As a recent comment here showed, these bundles also impose frustrating management challenges.

For a recent thread of comments on bagged magazines click here. Also, to help keep track of this issue I have created a new category: Bagged magazines. I’ve retagged some past posts to build the history.
