    Yay BOOKS!!! The library, at least her in Florida, has a seperate “bookstore” where you can buy gently used books for $.50-$1.00. It’s like the library’s non-profit arm or membership club. People normally donate their old books to the “bookstore” or the library might actually sell their out-of-date books. Call your local library to see what if they have one too.

  3. Thanks, Ms. Prince! I know my closest library doesn’t have a bookstore, but I found out that the branch downtown DOES! I’m very excited about that and can’t wait for a chance to go check it out. Thanks so much for sharing this bit of info. That’s why we’re all here! :)

  4. Thanks for the tips, Gerri! My mother-in-law just came up on some great finds for the baby at a thrift store near her job. We wiped them down with some Colorox wipes and we’re good to go! :)

  5. The FIRST place I go for children’s books, as well as books for myself, is the thrift store. At one time, we had a book warehouse out here in Louisiana, but it has since closed. So, when I on a book haul for my library, I always pick them up something or allow them to come along to pick something up.

    • @Carla – I need to go to the thrift store more often. Both to buy some stuff and donate things. I love thrifting!
