We spent one hour searching for books. The missus grabbed two cross-stitch magazines, The Boy got a few books including reference material and I picked up several sports autobiographies, war books and history books. I didn't think that the books on offer were as exciting as last year, although I did spot a few copies of one of the books that I purchased last year, and that the price of the higher quality books was much more than last year. I seem to recall not paying more than $8 for a publication last year and this year bought one for $15 and another for $12. Still, they will certainly tide me over until next year. Less time on Facebook and more with my head in a book. Not a bad pickup for just over $100 methinks.
Get down there, grab a bargain, learn yourself up and help out a worthy charity.

Wo-hoot, that´s a lot!
Obviously you didn´t go to school over here. Otherwise you´d grab your legs and run when you see the name Hitler pop up someplace...
Hitler makes for very interesting reading material. I think we all know that he had a significant impact on the world. Germans are still reminded of it to this day.
