Did I Go Overboard – Overstuffed Book Bag

I usually head straight to the clearance section, where everything is $3.00 or under,  of  Half-Price Books, .   This was no exception  a  few weeks  ago  when they  had a 20%  off sale.     Look what came home with me!

 

Eight were fiction and $1.00 each less 20%, so how can you go wrong?     Then, I scored  three decorating books,  two were Southern Living Christmas Books at $1.00 ea.  Another on wreaths was $2.00.   Plus, another 20% off.

America 24/7,  a fabulous book of photographs, over 300 pages!    This thing weighs about 10 pounds!    Price:   $1.00  -  Less 20%!

 Now, the   SPLURGES: 

Redoutes’ Roses.    One hundred sixty-seven  (yes, 167)  11x14 prints of Roses on heavy paper, suitable for framing!   Price:  $7.00 less 20% – a treasure for $5.60

 

 Coming in at 12x16 and 255 pages  (and $7.00 less 20%)  a book of  American West Landscapes containing everything from Church to Remington!

 

This will be added to stacks and stacks of art books like this:

 

Total Cost :  $20.80.  That left me with change from the $25.00 gift card.

Did I go overboard?
