Has anyone else gotten their complimentary issue of Blueprint in the mail? I haven't yet but I keep getting bills for the full subscription with letters saying, "If you haven't gotten Blueprint yet, you should soon." Kind of thought I'd like to read the mag before I pay for a subscription. I've never been disappointed with Martha so I'm sure I'll subscribe but I really want to see this issue!

Priya, I got mine yesterday.

I too got at LEAST 2 bills already for it. Not only that, from what I understand, the next issue doesn' come till August, adn then they are going to try to be quarterly or something by next year? I'll wait to pay for that, thanks!

Two bills and still waiting for mine. I'm with you Rachel, I'll wait to pay. I received a subscription renewal bill a few days before Budget Living was killed. Wonder when that money would have been returned?

Are you impressed with it? Do tell.

I was a major supporter of BL during the Sarah Gray-Miller period. This new mag has a lot to live up to, especially since I probably won't be able to afford anything in it.

Well, I don't know if I am interested yet. It didn't make me sit down and look at it right away (yay! I kept up with my cure goal of whittling down current stacks of MS living and Real Simple!) - and I didn't bring it with me to work. I don't know. We'll see if I pick it up tonight...

Thanks Rachel and Lisa! I was sort of feeling like I was the only one who didn't get one! Now I'll be checking the mailbox obsessively this week. :)

Now way can you have rockin' sex on that cardboard bed. I say AT should invest in a test - with before and after photos!

Anyone kow where you can purchase Loyal Loot stuff?? I'm loving the bonnie & clyde nesting tables!

I agree with Papercuts. I'm not so sure that bed could handle all the radical sex I'll be having.

Also, CHEAP?! 540EUR for a bed of CARDBOARD??

Cool, yes. But definitely not cheap! Did anyone notice the picture of the two people near the bed? Only one person was actually ON the bed at a time... Hmmm.
