Heck, I couldn't buy 6 books a week from Barnes and Noble. Couldn't afford it.
At "Stars Ours", my nickname for "The Stars Our Destination Science Fiction
Bookstore", you can get 5 books for $1 if you buy the "Red D" books and show
up on the second Tuesday of the month. Even if you buy regular used books on
a normal day, you still pay only half price. And there are a lot of fine
books that were published back when they were $3.00 apiece - you still pay $1.50.
