Low Budget Mag is a term used to describe a type of magazine or zine. A zine is a small-circulation, self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via photocopier. Zines are typically published by individuals, small presses, or independently. Low Budget Mags are often created with limited resources and are distributed for free or at a low cost. They are often used to express political, social, or personal views and opinions.
