Yes I bought the most recent issue of Astronomy from the "Mamak shop" nearest the Taxi stand at Sim Lim Square. (I lost count of the number of times Calabi-Yau manifolds was mentioned in this issue, LOL)

They also carry the UK Sky and Telescope magazine.

PageOne at Vivo carries S&T, Astronomy, and Sky at Night. About $12 a copy , which is cheaper than Borders.

Astro-Scientific also carries the S&T magazine at a good price.

If you intend to get every month, it is cheaper to subscribe.

The absolute cheapest way is to borrow from the library. S&T, Astronomy and NightSky are available at certain libraries. Night Sky is catered for beginners.
