If yes, did it contain anything of any interest?

Yes I have bought quite a few. Don't always read them though, I mean too, but never get round to it. Some of the articles are interesting, but there is plenty of crap stuff in them too.
If it helps someone out, whats £1.40 out any-ones pocket, and at least the sellers aren't just asking for hand-outs.

Yes i always buy one when I go into town as I was once homeless and know what it feels like.
They have very good articles in them interviews on diffrent bands ex also envioronment issues also the other good thing is many plces advertise and give good discounts for a meal ect so never knock it people one day it may be you.

Yes I have bought a copy from a Romanian woman who had two small babies with her. Never read it though! My sister used to buy it all the time.

No, but I've often sold copies of 'Home and Garden' to the Big Issue vendors by way of encouragement.

yes I've bought a copy several times, to be honest sometimes there are good articles in it and sometimes not, like with any magazine or newspaper.
i don't really buy it for the content , i buy it to try and help someone help them-self towards a better life.

Yes, they often have alot of good interviews with celebs, musicians etc and often more personal, normal people interviews. Not to mention the usual reviews, letters etc and recent n relevant news articles. Fairly good mag
