Which Bookstore?

[Paperback_hussie]

Tell us which store is your favorite bookstore? Do you use Used bookstores? Library? Do you have a good network of friends that "trade and swap?
Well we only have Books A Million and Hastenings and a used bookstore called the Book Rack in Wichita Falls>>> So here goes I know it sounds crazy! LOL Books a Million is cheaper on the Paperbacks so I go there for those and Hastenings is cheaper on Hardbacks so I use them too! And I go to the Bookrack if there is a new author I want to try- also they are good to use when looking for earlier books by my fav authors also!

I love borders because i am a member and i get coupons, LOL!!! When i shop online I go to Amazon and Ebay (for used books). I also sometimes borrow books from my friends if i like what they are reading :o)

I love Borders best for actual Book Stores...of course here in Australia Target, K-Mart and Big W all sell books around 30% cheaper so I always check out those stores too.

I also order from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and I just discovered Book Depository where you do not pay postage (anywhere in the world) and I have done about 4 orders from them.

It sure is, I cannot believe there is no postage. It is fab! I ordered 4 books and spent around $38 in total (AU) and it was cheaper than If I'd bought them here :)

I shop at Borders because I'm a rewards member, and the coupons come in very handy. For the most part, though, I shop at used book stores (there are 2 good shops near me in Tampa), and I frequent the library. Gotta save money when you read as much as I do!

I love Barnes and Noble! It helps that my husband gets a a snazzy 30% discount on the books and 50% off at the Starbucks inside the store. I can spend hours there...

The BarnesandNoble website is kind of cool too. You can make all kinds of lists.

I work at a bookstore (Books For Less) and we do have books for less! Har har har. ;) We do custom orders too and it doesn't hurt that I get any book I want for free via my employee status. ;) I used to love Waldens aka Borders but they closed in the mall near my apartment. :( The closest one is now an hour away! The store I work at actually took it over. Barnes and Noble is okay but they're expensive and these days I have to watch my money. Kmart actually has really cheap books! ^_^

I love Barnes and Noble, but I also buy books from Walmart, Meijer, and K-mart. I do get quite a lot of my books from my online book club at sfbc.com. They have a huge selection, and the prices are pretty cheap most of the time.

I'm a Border's girl. Whether it's online or going into the actual store it's the one place I love to go.

Oh I never buy a book without checking out Big W and Kmart. I picked up the first nine books in the True Blood series for $11 each the other week. The only thing that with those stores is you don't feel like you are in a book shop. I love to go to second hand bookshops I can spend hours there looking around. Newtown (near Sydney) has some of the best I have ever been to. We are also lucky enough to get The Life Line Bookfair twice a year they have some great bargins as well

Around here we have all of them, Barnes and Nobles is the most expensive, except for when my friend that works there can use his discount for me ! We have a books-a-million which i only use if I cannot find the book I want at the Hall Book Exchange, I never actually exchange books, i just buy up what she has in the paranormal section! I can never part with my books, one day, I may want to re-read them!! I use Amazon for most of my paperback series that I cannot find at the book exchange! I hate the postage, but most of the time I can find the books I want used for Ultra Cheap!!

I'm a Barnes and Noble member so I get extra discounts and coupons. Every little savings helps! I get used books from ebay or half.com. I try and get what I can from the Library also.
