Price/Publication

The price of my magazine will be £3.90 and it will be published monthly, I think that the price is quite reasonable for the age range it is aimed at, although some of the target audience it is aimed at will be on quite a tight budget I think that the amount of features in the magazine will make the magazine worth the money and because it is published monthly it only works out as around £0.90 a week.
