Here is another example where bagging a magazine with an old issue has not delivered the growth publishers talk of for bagged product. The new issue of Golf Magazine went on sale yesterday so I checked sales for the old issue (pictured) which was bagged with a previous issue … no sales lift for us. I doubt publisher claims that bagging a magazine with an old issue lifts sales – show me sales data and I may change my mind but in my store I am not seeing it.
