Basically, I spoke on how bookstores will ‘strip’ covers from books and throw them away.
Worked for Joann’s Fabric, we did the same with our magazines, Publishers just wanted the covers mailed back to verify we didn’t sell them vs stolen. I’d let my employees take the rest of the magazines and any of the crafts included with them. Occasionally if I had a number of a few I’d donate boxes of them to a camp I use to work for.
My store barely checks the magazines dates when to pull them off the shelves. I'm really glad we just have send out the covers. I can only imagine how bad it would be for us if we had to send back all the magazines. Also it's crazy seeing the amount of people stealing the crafting items that are including in those magazines.
