Monthly Book Sales start in January!

“Freaky Fourth Fridays”

Starting January 27 the fourth Friday of each month will be “Freaky Fourth Friday Book Sale”.  Each month we will offer a different sale such as 2 for one hardbacks, two for one paperbacks, etc.

We have also reduced the prices of the books in the Book Nook.  With Nooks, Kindles, iPads, etc. we are finding that ‘real’ books are not selling like they did in the past.  Below are the new prices, and we hope you will stop by and pick up a ‘real’ book at a ‘really’ good price to add to your own library or give as a gift.

New Prices effective January 3:

  • Hardbacks — $2.00
  • Oversized Adult Paperbacks — $1.00
  • Paperbacks — $.50
  • Children’s Books — $.25
  • Ex Library Hardbacks — $.75
  • Ex Library Paperbacks — $.25
  • Ex Library Children’s Books — $.15
  • CD/DVD/Audio Tapes (condition unknown) – $.50
  • Books with stickers – priced as marked
  • Magazines – FREE
