Bumped because it's going on now.

For anyone thinking of going, you might want to consider going on Saturday. On the last day, they try to clear out all the remaining books. So, in the waining hours, they start to do deals, like half priced childrens books or as many of a certain category of book you can fit into a bag for $0.50 of something like that. You cn really make a killing. And the best part is that they don't really put books out by how well they are expected to sell. They fill the tables and shelves with books and just keep refill the empty spots with more from the same category. They also keep books in boxes under the tables. So, you can rummage through those also.

Okay, if you didn't go... now it's too late - . I went today at about 3:30 pm and stayed until closing. Spent $14.90 and all my books were half off. I did get a bit panicy at checkout. The older guy ringing my stuff up said my total was $24-something. I was like that can't be right. Is that supposed to be after the 50% off? The woman giving the prices said yes and I asked if that looked like $24 worth of books. She offered to have them rang up again. $10 cheaper second time around. Anyway, I got a nice haul.
