We have a serious reading habit to support. After a number of years, we finally figured out that we could avoid the $100 Barnes & Noble expense -- that we could have our reading experiences for...free. We like free. Love it, in fact.
The girls, on the other hand, do not always grasp the idea of books being returned. They, like all children, like repetition, and therefore, get a little cranky when their books are returned after a check-out period of three weeks.
A nice compromise is the library book store, where duplicate copies of books or slightly damaged books are sold to the public. Since any book that passes their hands is instantaneously "slightly damaged," this works out well.
Last week, I picked up all of the below books -- 8, in total -- for $2.00.
WooHOO!
