Where do you usually buy your books?

If I know the book I want and have time to look it over, I like to buy from www.amazon.com with the free shipping option if I can. I have found that it is also a good site for buying presents for others and having them delivered to their door. It save me a lot of time and everyone likes good mail instead of bills! I usually like to try a book out from the library first. If I want to mark the book up really bad, I resort to buying my own copy because marking up library books is not acceptable. I love library book sales, garage sales, estate sales, etc. Sometimes if I am looking for a book, I also like to try ebay. When all else fails, I look at the bargain racks at Barnes & Noble or Borders or just pay full price for the book as a last resort.

I used to buy my books at Borders or two other major bookstores. But they are so expensive; so now I get my novels at used bookstores. Some of the books are as good as new, and the prices are much, much lower.

Welcome to myLot! I love to buy bargain books at BookSale... I seldom buy books at National Bookstore, not unless there is a sale

Have tended to buy my books from charity shops or booksales as they are normally the most readonably priced places - That being said there are a few second hand books hops near where I live and they are not too bad when it comes to prices, although I tend only to go in if I am after a particular book.

I buy books from a number of different places. If I come across a book that I absolutely, positively have to have, I'll usually buy it from work. I get a really nice discount on new books, so I save quite a bit on the newest titles. Sometimes (if I ask really nicely!) my boss even lets me bring new hardcovers home to read so I don't have to buy them! I also get a lot of books from Amazon.com. It's so convenient, and a lot of the time I can find used books for a quarter or less. I usually end up spending about $4 total for any book that I buy, and that includes shipping. It never costs me anything out of pocket, though--when I buy books on Amazon, I pay with gift cards I've won from Swagbucks.   ^_^% When I'm really, really broke and itching for something to read, I head to the public library. They always have a lot of books for sale, and I don't think I've ever paid more than a dollar per book there. Sometimes I shop for books at local thrift stores, too, but most of the time the ones they have are very beat up and icky. A lot of my books are collectibles, so I tend to be a bit fussy about the condition of the ones I buy!   ^_^;;

I usually buy books on line at joyo site

When I need to buy a book, I use search engine to look for the cheapest on the internet, I don't care much about the store, as long as I find the price is the best. However, I need much reference books published by Springer Editor and I go to the store directly because the price online and the the price on the premises are similar.

i always buy my books at Chapters. i love to actually go into the store and walk around and check out all the new books and featured books that have come out. or i'll buy them off Amazon cause sometimes it is cheaper online

I go to the Friends of the Library book store. It is a nonprifit store in my town that you can donate and buy books, all of the money goes to the local librbay to purchase new books and computers. I also buy books at gargage sales. on ocasion I will buy anew book at Hastings or Barns and Noble, but I do not like to pay full price for books because I seldom read a book more than once.
