I <3 "Free Book Week"!!

Post by bicostp »

Ok, so one of my local libraries was purging some of their books. They either haven't been taken out in 2 years or are outdated or theyu just don't want them anymore, whatever. Two weeks ago it was "Books for a Buck: Fiction". Last week was "Books for a Buck: Nonfiction". This week is "Free Book Week"!! You bet your last bottom dollar I went there today! (Actually I just got back!) Man they had boxes upon boxes upon boxes of whatever was left over after the last couple weeks. You could easily fill a couple vans with all the books! :D

And they were better than the book sale at another library, 'cause all these books were categorized in boxes: Romance, Technology, Science, Hobbies, the list goes on. So, whithout further rambling, here's my haul:

(an image was the best way to show you the table I made.)
Keep in mind, these were all FREE! :D Libraries RULE!

Anyone else get some leet free stuff?

(Sorry if this is spammy, but I'm juyst really happy about this, that's all. :D)

It would really be a deal if you got the anthology...

Good load of books you got there. I should go to one of my local libraries and see if they ever have one of these I need to learn some programing I would probably like to learn C or HTML. Whats up with the microwave book.

How much you want for that Motorola 68K book? I've been getting into Classic Mac programming lately and they all run on 68K architecture.

You should look on amazon, they can have used books for damned cheap, then its 3.50 shipping per book (because they're sold by individuals, not the website).

Don't forget the Sega Saturn with its 4+ processors! They had to be programmed all in different types of assembly.. imaging trying to tie all that together.
