Good Deals at Borders

Ian dragged me to Borders last night. I didn't want to go (because I knew I'd spend money--it never fails), but I went willingly. Ok, so he didn't drag me there.

There were some excellent bargains. Not only are there a bunch of mediocre books in boxes at the front for $3.99 each (I found a good crossword puzzle book in there--you just have to be patient and dig), but some of the books in their clearance section are (as always) great finds.

I got a really nice art book for $10. It's about 300 pages of full-color reproductions of some major art works, something that would normally cost closer to $40 full-price. I've definitely gotten some good deals in the Borders clearance section before.

So if you're in the mood for some cheap summer reading, hit up the clearance section at Borders. There's a pretty good chance you'll find something.

You should also hit up the Web site--they redid it a few months ago and there are some nice social media features in it. An improvement from only using Amazon as their Web site, I'll say.
