Maybe I should add that I subscribe?
I'm in a bit of a quandry about subscribing. For whatever reason,
S&T is almost unique in american astro products as being cheaper in
the UK than it is in the US (5.99 USD cf 2.95 UKP).
However, for the 3 year subscription rate you end up paying 50%
more than the 'merkins for it. I'm assuming that's the overhead of
delivering single copies by post rather than bulk transporting a
whole consignment.

What about using your local paper shop, mine will get
magazines to order and either deliver them when they come
in, they send them out with the papers, even if you don't
have a daily paper, or you can arrange to collect them from
the shop.
You get the mag each month without having to hunt round for
it and you pay the cheaper cover price.
