Who actually buys the Big Issue?

[Sammeth.]

I dont buy it, but I give them any spare change if I see someone seeling it at the end of my day. I mean its only like 50p's or 20p's but if I know Im not going to spend it, someone should ;D

[shiver]

ma mum used to buy it

[edible]

i dont buy it. but i often give change, and my mum knows the man who sells it kindaa, and he has a dog, and he smiles and says hi so yanoo. he's an evertonian too!

and the people that sell it are homeless, they sell the magazines and get a share of the money, not much. but they get shelter too from selling them.

I don't, but my dad sometimes does or just gives them some spare change. But, thats about it.

I went up to one once and handed them the money, then yoinked it back outta their hand and ran

You are a ****** I hope you end up selling the big issue...

Oh and no I don't buy it, I'll just give some spare change to them if I have it, only like 10, 20, 50's etc

[Invent]

Whenever I go to chester I ALWAYS buy it off the same guy. The one who is next to WHSmith near the bus stop. If you ever go to Chester you will have seen him, he is outside HSBC (near the precinct).

[Immenseman]

Nope, I never have but my dad has a few times.

Before or after you tried to steal someones walking stick..?

I actually hope you made that up to try and look 'big', and didn't actually do it. Its the 'buskers', that sit down in streets and say 'Spare change please?' that are often faking it, not the Big Issue sellers.
