Book Bonanza

Early Sunday, my husband was alerted by one of his Facebook buddies on a warehouse book sale in Petaling Jaya and was given a link to the said sale.The sale was only for 3 days and one day had gone by.

Without much delay, armed with the cyber information, we set out to find the point of the sale at Section 13 PJ.

Even though it was only advertised over the Internet, the response was great. There were so many book lovers browsing, collecting the books and placing them in boxes when we got there. One European woman collected 4 boxes. I wonder how she carried them to her car.

Over 100,000 imported fiction, motivational, business and non-fiction books and magazines were offered at the lowest price of RM3 and the highest price of RM 10. Imagine buying a RM50-RM 60 hard cover book for only RM10. We even bought an Australian interior decor magazine for RM5.

We purchased 11 books on Sunday and went again on Monday to collect more Steve Berry books to complete a collection.

We left the sale only after leaving my email so that I may be alerted of more sales bonanza in the future.

The above picture shows all the books that our family has collected in 2009. That does not include some which are currently being read. Meanwhile, the television will remain off for a while as we go through our new toys. That is our contribution to saving electricity for now.

Now where are we going to put all these books?
