| - I was really sad when Borders had closed. I remembered a used bookstore being close to Target, but I had never ventured inside, until recently, when I was looking for some gardening books. Then I became sad again, but it was because of how long it had taken me to find this place AND that I had been paying Borders prices for years when this place was only a hop, skip, and a jump away. Ugh, dummy!
Anyway, this place has about every book category you would find at Barnes and Noble, plus audio books, VHS, DVD's, Blue Ray, Records, CDs, Computer software, video games, and little knick-knacks that look fun to purchase, but are utterly useless. I noticed the complete Band of Brothers collection on DVD for $20, single DVDs range from $6-$10, and Blue Rays from $12-20. Some where still in their cellophane wrapping, while others showed some wear. I was a little nostalgic when I saw they had Game Boy and Super Nintendo game cartridges ( I didn't see any original Nintendo games)!
The staff was very friendly and I spent about 45 minutes in the store browsing the different sections and reading from various books. There was a coffee and hot chocolate station that I did not take advantage of because I was scared I would have stayed there for hours. From now on I will bee checking out this store first when I need to purchase a book for their discounted prices without the used book store smell!
