I'm doing one of my favorite activities... browsing books!!!

I HATe Amazon.com!.... NOT!

oooooo those recommendation lists are so bad!!! I mean... they work!!! LOL! I think my "wish list" is now 5 pages long! Anyone else have this trouble?

Any of you hear of half.com? That's my other favorite place for books, else i'd be broke! They offer used books and new books at deep discount. If you haven't tried it and want a $5 off coupon for your first $10 order, just send me your email address and i'll get you one.

http://www.half.com

Usually i browse at Amazon.com but then see if it's available at half.com for less. I'm trying to hold off right now though, because i've just purchased half a dozen books i haven't gotten through yet... but i'll knock off one this weekend i'm sure!

Hey, thanks Holly! I haven't heard of half.com! Another outlet for my addiction! LOL

Please send me a coupon, kathyv_mod@yahoo.com

I drive my family crazy, when we get to a city, I get excited about Borders and Barns & Nobel while thay all want the Mall! (As long as there is a Walden at the Mall I am ok with that!)

Can I get a coupon too please???!!

I'll beg if need be

also for used books.. try http://www.rereadables.com

very very good prices..and even though they are used they are definately in good condition..last time I ordered from there.. I got 11 books for thirty dollars.. including shipping..and the books were in excellent condition..

although you do have to check back often .. as their stock always changes.

well I don't buy books on internet (well I don't buy anything)... maybe I would like but cost of transport from U.S. would be too big!
But I know the pain of long wish lists of book:]
