My Chapter’s Card
Have you ever wondered whether bookstore cards are worth the plastic that they are printed on? Well, it all depends on how many books you buy over the year. For me, it definitely saves me money… which I then go and directly spend on a decadent cup of coffee.
Actually, my husband swears that I must be one of their best customers or they wouldn’t send me gift certificates in the mail for even more books. And then there is the fact that if you have some book lovers in your household, you can do all of your Christmas shopping in one afternoon and use your card for even more savings.
So, if you love to lose yourself in someone else problems (your favorite fiction) a card might be a very good investment for you!!

At one time I had one of those Waldenbooks cards and I had it all worked out so that it really did save me money. I haven’t been to a mall in a long though so I haven’t really needed to use it. Plus, at some point I started buying books mostly from Amazon.
Last year though a B&N opened near our house and my husband has bought me large gift cards for Christmas and my birthday so I now buy most books I want from there now. Except for books they don’t have, which I usually still get from Amazon.
