Yet another free Houston magazine! This one, published by the Houston In-Town Chamber of Commerce,…read morehas an inner-loop focus, plus they host lots of networking events at area bars (even breakfast events - not at bars). The articles tend to be about local events and personalities, and the party photos are kept to a minimum (two big pluses). I actually find this magazine somewhat useful in determining good contacts/events for the central area of Houston. Another plus - no nasty cosmetic surgery ads!

This is not about Houston Chronicle as a publication. There are a lot of excellent writers…read morecontributing to the excellence of the publication and I am happy to read it. However, as a paying customer, the Chronicle falls short. I signed up for a deal of .99 cents for 6 months. After ballooning up to $25.66 and feeling like I only read a few articles a month, I decided to cancel. Tiffany was my support person and initially was extremely cordial and offered everything down to the point where it was $0.99 a week, but once I mentioned I wanted to cancel again, she became cold and tried to rush me off the phone. Did not offer any kind of confirmation via email and said she's unable to do so. It helped me understand that I was actually making the right decision after all. The cancellation process was a nightmare. One can only cancel over the phone (#1) and the waits were extremely long. There was no indication of how long the waits would be and the automated prompts were frustrating to deal with. Eventually the phone line would disconnect after 20 minutes and I only learned recently that the phones are only open till 5pm on weekdays. To add to the frustration, their digital support service via email (#2) does not quickly reply. Eventually, I was able to call in the mid afternoon and cancel my subscription over the phone. They offered me as low as $.99 each week for 3 months, but given the technology woes, the inability to view billing statements online, and the hassle it took to cancel I declined. ___________ (#1) (713) 362-7211 (#2) digitalsupport@hearst.com / help@houstonchronicle.com

I am not a fan of this magazine, primarily because it does not appeal to me, but they insist on…read moresending it to me anyway and will not stop despite my requests. They used to be delivered via white fans, which would enter private subdivisions with signs prohibiting soliciting, handbills, etc., and then simply throw their magazines onto our lawns. This was highly agitating, and I'm glad they have stopped doing that. However, their solution now is to use carrier route saturation to have USPS simply put them in everyone's mailboxes. Again, it's better than my lawn, but still poses the problem that I don't want it, and am being told I don't have a choice. No, it's not too much trouble to throw away, but simply another thing I have to pick up and deal with. And it does take up space in my rather small mailbox and sometimes causes other mail pieces to fling out when I open the door. That said, its leadership team is friendly enough in response to my requests, but simply unwilling to help.

I've got to say this magazine is one that usually catches my eye the most over the other FREE…read morehouston publications. The photography in here is higher quality than their competitors. Yes people complain about their ads, but their ads are of restaurants that I actually enjoy. Their articles are usually the most ground breaking as far as trendy things to do. The fashion section is a good read in my opinion too.

This thick local mag reminds me a lot of Black Book, minus some of the writers (but what do you…read moreexpect for free?). Fashion and culture news, obligatory party photos, and ads galore. Some reviews of restaurants and nightlife as well, and I think I saw an article tucked in somewhere. A strong Gen Y focus. Worth a read to get a feel for the zeitgeist, but not as strong of a resource as some of the local weeklies. Published by Modern Luxury magazines, which only publishes for a handful of cities...consider us...lucky?

The magazine resembles W Magazine but is regional to cities like LA, Chicago, Atlanta, Honolulu, Dallas, etc. You can find great reviews for restaurants, new boutique openings, national and local adverts. Their target demographic of readers mostly consist of yuppies. The magazine is found at high end restaurants and retail shops. It's the go-to read for Houston.
