Books in glass display cabinet are now 60% off Time to send out our 700+ emails. It's late and I am tired. All I have to say is...BRING BOXES if possible. Thanks and see you there. My lovely red van was just towed away from the parking lot with burning belt trouble...that's why we have triple A! Anyone have a Ford Windstar mini van for sale a bit younger than 2001? I am here at the whim of the bus schedule so will stay til 3pm. Cozy and there are fresh baked cookies and cider. What else could you ask for/...Oh yes...something to read? Still about 15,000 books here (down from 20,000+!
Our plan is to assess our plans in mid January and make decisions concerning bookcases, steeper discounts and what our endgame is. Having never closed a bookstore before, we are making it up as we go. We have into February but there will be much to clean up and disperse. Come by and help us lighten our load. Books are VERY cheap! 90% of the books are $1.00 to $3.00. Many interesting fiction and non-fiction still here.... Now time for another delicious date square... The holes in the driveway have been filled in, the parking areas neatly plowed. Our loyal customers come one by one and two by two. Some twice or more a week. We know how overwhelming browsing through the stacks can be. Always some pretzels, apples and water-tea-or-coffee in the entry way if you need more energy! We have had requests to lessen more prices in the mid range of books so this new discount goes into effect on Thursday, December 15th.
Books less than $9.99 = $1.00 $10.00 - $19.99 = $3.00 $20.00 - $34.99 = $5.00 $35.00 - $49.99 = $10.00 $50 and up = 60% off We usually have boxes but bring some, if you have them, in case we run out (or Big Y does from whence they come!). Remember, this discount is for all bookcases unless otherwise marked with a percent off. That means 7/8 of upstairs and all of the downstairs. Have fun and tell your friends! Later this week I will be posting the new discount schedule. We need to loosen up more shelves. So stay tuned! Also the glass case will stay at 50% off til after Christmas. Check it out. We have added to it. There is a new dollar section in the front entry (though more than 1/2 the store's books are discounted to $1.00). Customers don't believe we are selling books at such a low price...but we are serious and looking to clean out most of the stock by mid to late January. Then we can start selling the pine bookcases. Til later...and enjoy the snow...
