I keep mine in a 4" binder along with an index. I would be very unhappy if you decided to leave them out. I can pull up any item I want because they all are in order and sequence. Please don't quit including them.

If you have ever tried to drill magazines you would find that it is not a good choice. They come out rough and lumpy.

we're pretty smart people , and can figure out how to drill the holes ourselves if we like them. on the flip side it's hard to fill the holes .

I keep mine in Magazine holders, cardboard. Perhaps it might be better if you did not drill the holes and offered a WCI designed magazine holder instead.

I store all of my periodicals in holders designed for that purpose, buying the cheap version from Walmart. I thought about putting them in binders; but, if I am going to a back article, I don't read it and put it away. I take it to my work bench or reclliner and spend a while with it. A binder would be inconvenient.

My first thought was to check the "I don't care" line. But, giving it a little more thought.....and especially reading Shannon's post (did not realize it costs extra)...my vote is to get rid of the holes.

I have yet to use the "holes", but that is just me.

I can see them to be useful for storage, but I simply use a shelf magazine holder for all my magazines.

In these tough times anything cost effective without sacrificing quality is good for all.
