A pile of newspapers or magazines will always be an eyesore, no matter how neatly they're stacked. This Stock Back tote from Cubisto, however, keeps your [magazines organized neatly](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tower-desk1). When it's time to discard your magazine back issues and [old newspapers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/newsletter-management), the [felt organizer doubles as a tote](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-tote-system) to transport your periodicals to the recycling bin.

The Stock Back tote has another neat function. When it's full, just untie the plastic string to release the bottom of the tote. The back-saving simplicity of the tote takes into mind the considerable weight of a full tote to let you toss your magazines out without straining.
