:!: Good for you to be able to find so many. I went during lunch and then after work. A bit itching to go again during weekend becos I saw the stacks of unopened stuff they have - decided against it, what I don't know won't kill me.

Felt a bit sianz that the prices are not as good as before. Yet, when I go online to check, the prices are still cheaper than if I source from those websites (even without the shipping). Yeah! :celebrate:

Borders sale update:


Kids selection - pathetic. (only like 1 row / 20 boxes of books and disappearing fast)
Fiction - good (few rows, all in boxes, but no logical way to look)
Non-fiction - VERY good (more than half the hall, titles all over the place).

Most books are like 50% off list price, or tagged with a price (eg $5). A lot of them are those that have been loved by book browsers before (ie condition not that great but still acceptable).

They have pretty good check out system. ‘less than 5 books’ have their own queue. Not many pp queueing when I was paying (thank goodness) so it was pretty quick.
