Post Your Last Purchase

I'm guessing I have a lot of company here:

I need to get caught up on my Stephen King but I don't like buying expensive books on my Kindle. I found this website that sells used books for reasonable prices called Thriftbooks.com. I got all of these hardcovers for between $3-$4 each. Some of them are old library books, but if you're careful you can get the plastic covers off and the dust covers will be in perfect condition. Some newer books are a little high, so I'd double check prices on Amazon first. I've seen a few that are around the same price on Amazon new as they are used on Thriftbooks.

I'm going to have to have a looky at that site! I recently read Revival and really enjoyed it. Haven't read the other 2 yet but will eventually, love me some Stephen King.

It's a pretty cool site. If you add a book to your wishlist that they don't have in stock they will send you an email when they get it in. They also have a rewards program.

I actually started on You by Caroline Kepnes first. If you like King you would probably like it. It's told from the point of view of a stalker.:eek:

Mr Mercedes and Finders Keepers are the first two in a trilogy. Part three is due out this year.
Now I just need Bazaar of Bad Dreams and I'll be caught up. (Besides the Dark Tower series)

I'm waiting for Amazon refunds then am getting Bazaar for my kindle.

I will have to read the others, I'm behind on my reading and there are gaps in my King.

For some reason I have a hard time paying full price for Kindle books. I get most of mine from checking the the Kindle Daily Deals page every day. I also signed up for BookBub. You tell them what kind of books you like and they'll send you a daily email with cheap and free book deals.

I bought Tomorrowland on the Play Store. they had it running on the cruise ship and we caught a few minutes here and a few minutes there but not the whole thing. What I saw I loved so decided to burn some credit I had on my account and pick it up. Still haven't watched it - bought it last week.

I wouldn't mind looking some up for you. I've got several editions. You can pm me the info, including label numbers.
I appreciate it,but,I haven't had any vinyl in years.
Another lifetime ago,I sold my humble collection for a fraction of their retail worth.
Not my smartest move by any stretch,back in my early 20's when I knew everything & had it all figured out............ ;) :rolleyes:

What is wrong with me? This is coming Wednesday. Good gaks!! Fender Classic Player Baja Telecaster, brand spankin' new. These are pics of the actual guitar from Sweetwater. I need help. I told the kid to stop me but he quickly pointed out there is no stopping it. I will sell my other one when I'm sure the new one is good and will stay. But really. What is wrong with me?

I love to look, and hold in my hands, a nice guitar....

but sigh, mother nature handed me out deaf ears full of Tinnitus :(

and she also did a stupid thang, and forgot to give a good "rememberer".


I am really jealous of those who can hear part of a tune, and somehow, know how to play the rest of it 'right now'.
