I've been a subscriber to the New York Times crosswords since 2008. They throw in a cryptic about every two-three months. That's fine with me, because I don't like all the unchecked squares. They also have one called Puns and Anagrams at about the same frequency. It's a lot like a cryptic, but all the letters are common to two words as in the US format. I just finished one of those. Do you have both UK and US formats in NZ?
The NYT recently tried to get me to subscribe to their entire package. NO WAY! I unsubscribed from that gray spam.

I only get one magazine these days, and it's for the cryptic crossword. I see you can do them online now, but I prefer the paper and ballpoint way of doing them. They stretch your brain in so many different directions!
