Our county library had a book sale this weekend. Yesterday their books were $1 for all books you could fit in a bag.. Carried my own tote bags,2, and got probably 100 paperbacks…and all books in a box for $5. Got 2 boxes of mainly hardbacks, at least 25-30 in each box. Now just have to find a place for them
I resent paying full price, so second hand every time. I also keep lists of books I want to read and won’t buy them until I find them second hand. I love the challenge (I’m probably a bit of an odd’un) And of course as kindle deals too!
It is impossible for me to walk by any kind of book sale without looking. I have found some great books at those sales. At one sale they were sellings books for $0.25 each. Best time to try new authors.
During my college days I use to go to this second hand book market in an old part of the town …I have found such treasures there … That use to be so much fun
Yep ? we don’t have yard sales here in Ireland but when I visited America recently I was delighted to come across one ? bought lots of Cosy mysteries ?
All my hardcovers are from these sources.

I get my books anywhere and everywhere!
Yes.
There’s an app called thrift books if y’all want to check it out ?
I do. Plus http://thriftbooks.com/ that place is AMAZING
I get them anywhere I can honey
I would, but hardly ever find any I’m interested in
Yessss
Me. And library sales. I’ve built quite a collection.
Anywhere. Everywhere.
When I find some yep
All the time-buy only used books.
I read that as ‘get their looks’ ??
Yes ?
I mostly get mine from thrift stores or the Dollar Tree. If I find some books at a garage/rummage sale I’ll snatch them up lol
Of course!
Thrift shop and library sale shelves.

I’m not picky where I get my books!
Yes

90%
Most definitely! I also get a lot of books from charity shops, where they are 2/1 euro or 3/1 euro.
I get mine from Goodwill, the Salvation Army thriftstore and the Habitat for Humanity thriftstore.
Any sale really as well as a local consignment book shop.
sure do
Always and forever! I’m always disappointed when I go to a yard sale, or an estate sale and there is no books! I’m ready to leave right then.
Me too
