I personally love thrift shops and used book stores. I buy a lot of my books online though through half.com and abebooks.com they are very reasonably priced. Anyone know any other cheap-o stores or websites to get books from?

I use my Kindle, but for the rest of the family - Half Price Books hands down is our favorite place to go! They mail us coupons too.

I just love PaperBackSwap! I mailed out 4 books this past weekend and have 2 on their way to me!

I get most of my books from the Used Book Store or Paperbackswap.

i love finding bargians at bam.......such as 6 brand new hardbacks for $25!! i also love the thrill of the hunt in disorganized used book stores. i find alot of deals on amazon, too. printed books and for my kindle. there's a site called swap.com that seems like it's pretty good, i just haven't really had the time to poke around there.

I also prefer to use the library, as I never know how much I am going to like a book, and there are very few books I reread. We do have some local used bookstores that are a lot of fun though!

I get the majority of my books from the library. If I just have to own it I try the GoodReads swap and Paperback Swap. I also check fleamarkets when I get the chance. Worse come to worse, I go to Barnes and Noble....
