thankfully, despite the dreadful current condition of the national and even our local economy, gently used books is doing considerably well.
in fact, in recent months, the store expanded from two rooms to three rooms. with this recession taking its toll across the board, this news about a local used bookstore, or any business, is a refreshing point.
the middle room of the store is dedicated solely to a wide collection of used children's books, which are a great way for parents to find cheap copies of classics and for new elementary school teachers to begin filling their classrooms with plenty to read to their students.
and beyond that, the selection available because of trade-ins is also something that makes this store a unique, valuable asset to our region. plus, purchases can include 50% store credit usage via trade-ins. quite a deal !
Visited this store one time and look forward to a return visit in the near future.

ReplyDeleteooh, $5 off books! Steph and I both would like a chance to win! we're planning to visit this store at some point, either way
ReplyDeleteGently used books is an fantastic book shop. It's much larger than I expected it to be once I was inside. I could have spent hours in there. Tons and tons of great books, something for everyone. Cookbooks, kids books, art books, romance, poetry and more! I'm glad to have this shop in our area.
ReplyDeleteMy husband's been to Gently Used Books and couldn't say enough about it. I've been meaning to go but haven't gotten there yet! Maybe the $5 gift card is just what I need for motivation to get over there!!!
ReplyDeleteHope to visit this store some day. Looks very interesting and there are a few books I'm looking for. Thanks News not Blues.
