The Feb 8th, 2018 issue of Maclean’s is a great example of how you can get creative at the newsstand, with multiple covers. One cover is meant for women, and is being sold for $6.99; and one for men that costs $8.81. The 26% difference in cost represents the estimated gender pay gap in Canada.
Clever. Here’s hoping it’s a big success.
