I have always liked People Magazine. I do receive the magazine via USPS, as well as on line. I…read moreespecially like to read comments and often like to comment as well. However, for approximately the past 4 months the comments section has not been working. I have emailed People Customer Service at least 5-6 times for help and have received one response, asking for screenshots, which I have provided. The last 3-4 emails have gone unanswered. Very disappointed in their customer service. I actually received a renewal notice recently but given recent events I am not planning to renew

thieves!!! they charged my account for a subscription and when I callled them they couldn't even…read morefind me in their system....... because I've never ever subscribed to them!!!!! I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor as to why I was being randomly charged if I wasn't in their system and the guy I spoke to put me on hold for 20+ minutes "to put me through to someone else" until I finally hung up on them. Long story short I never got an answer as to why I was charged $25 when I wasn't even in their system and I had to cancel my debit card and get a new one and in the mean time per my bank I had to wait until the $25 charge wasn't pending anymore so that I could dispute it.... Beware of these SCAMMERS!!!!!!!

Dat's entertainment. Dat's entertainment. Dahlings…read more Chicago Social, n/k/a CS, is a glitzy, glossy, free magazine which is distributed to condo buildings and news boxes in certain areas downtown and on the north side. Since CS is free, anyone and everyone from the unwashed masses to the landed gentry who bathe in C-Notes can pick up a copy and get up to speed on local dining, parties, shopping, clothing, interior design and who's who in the local social scene (read: benefit attendees). Since CS is glossy, you can sit in your Gold Coast condo and spill your champagne on it or in your Rogers Park hovel and spill Diet RC on it and still be no worse for the wear, as the spillage will run right off, and you can continue perusing high culture. Dahling, isn't that fah-bulous? Ooh-kay, gurl? Basically, what CS is is a bunch of advertising and rah-rah PR that caters to those with substantial disposable income, those who clamor to one day have substantial disposable income and the pretentious who fall somewhere in the middle. Holla. It's about restaurants, shopping, clothing, jewelry, real estate, interior design and parties. It's to be taken more as entertainment than as informational, and it's always to be taken with a grain of salt. No publication with opinions written in the pretentious first person plural (e.g., "We felt the decor, ambiance and sushi were simply fabulous") is to be taken seriously on general principle. Probably the best part of CS is the section with the party photos. It's always interesting to see where the who's who and celebs are partying, with whom and whether or not they're hot. One must know every month where Bill Kurtis and Donna LaPietra are partying, or one may not be able to go out on the social scene for fear of embarrassment when discourse convenes over cocktails. Whether you're dirt poor or filthy rich, we recommend picking up a copy of CS monthly. It's an amazing way to plug into local society and get up to speed on everything that's fabulous locally. We'll see you on Michigan Avenue, dah-lings. Five stars.

Chicago Social is yet another reason why I love this city. For a girl who loves magazines and has…read moretoo many subscriptions, being able to pick up one this amazing for free seems wrong to me. The glossy covers and high end advertisements are only the beginning. The magazine has a true and honest connection to the city often featuring our own on the cover and in the pages. Located in boxes all around the city, the closest to me is at N Cannon and Fullerton, located next to a bus stop. Hey even the high society of Chicago Social appreciates public transportation.

It definitely seems to want to draw in the urban hipsters but seems to be a bit stale in doing a solid job of it. The hipsters probably read something else anyway since pretty much everyone knows that the Chicago Tribune also puts out this little magazine. I noticed Redeye also put out a movie newspaper which was also free. It covered new releases but overall that newspaper was pretty much just full of ads with just a small movie section. Not my first choice on magazines but it is free so what the hell, I pick it up anyway.

Printed on high quality paper so you don't have dirty fingers when you put it down. Solid columnists. They're not afraid to write original articles and take stands on local government policy and openly discuss bureaucratic corruption. Greg Hinz is mildly annoying but makes up for it with surprisingly piercing insight and wit. My favorite regular feature is the back page Info Junkie column where they take a local business bigwig and ask them what pubs they subscribe to, most recently read and favorite books. And their multitude of yearly lists, like Chicago's 40 under 40 and the Big Book of Lists are the epitome of coolness in a business pub.
