A Message to Our Readers
INTRODUCING THE ONLINE AARP MEMBERS EDITION
Americans are living more of their lives online—on their phones, computers and tablets. In fact, AARP members often tell us the internet is where they turn first for the entertainment, news and advice they need to build a great life as they age.
We’ve been listening. So, while the AARP Bulletin and AARP The Magazine will still be delivered to you in print, on July 1 we also launched AARP Members Edition, a new digital destination for daily news, stories, videos, discounts and more. And you already have access to the site. It comes free with your AARP membership.
We’ve loaded up AARP Members Edition with features we hope you’ll love: smart guides to living well, insider entertainment news, personal finance advice, games, exclusive interviews and add-ons to our print stories. (After you read the 99 money-saving tips in this issue, check Members Edition for 20 more tips that can save you up to $16,728.) Updated daily, Members Edition aims to be your go-to spot for trusted information and surprises, including our salute to those who serve by Law & Order’s Sam Waterston.
Beginning Jan. 1, the schedule for our print publications will change. We’ll be mailing AARP The Magazine and the AARP Bulletin in alternating months, for a total of six magazines and six Bulletins a year.
Our goal is to get you the information you want, when and where you want it. We hope you’ll check us out. —The Editors
