Zillions Magazine


Zillions

Submitted by Uniq

Zillions Magazine was a publication by Consumer Reports that was aimed towards kids. They would review things like Super Soakers and back packs, teaching kids how to look for good craftsmanship when buying products. Apparently they stopped publishing in September 2000, and are now only an online entity. To this day, I still knock around a back pack and put a bunch of books in it to make sure it can handle some abuse before purchasing. The last one I bought lasted about a decade!
