Hi, everyone!

So I have a practical question, looking for ideas. :)

This year for Christmas, I'm gifting magazine subscriptions for my family members ( the kind that comes once-twice a month in your mailbox, not e-mail ) and I have difficulty coming up with a way to -present- these gifts.
Writing a card " santa's late, look for your gift in mailbox" seems too simple and impersonal. I thought about buying a (december) magazine for each person and wrapping it, but maybe someone has a more greater idea?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think the card is impersonal at all. I see no reason to keep what it is a secret, however. Back in the old days, we checked off a box on the order that it was a gift, and they sent a card. Even if they still do that, your own card is nice. Buying a newsstand issue might just duplicate their first issue.
