See you there!
I was wondering if there is a place I can start taking books now. I have several boxes full and many more to pull from shelves but not enough room. Thank you.
Hi Judie, thank you for thinking of us! Unfortunately our storage space is at capacity as well. We will have the space at Sierra Vista Mall after August 7, and that’s when we will be able to take in more books.
If you absolutely can’t wait to move some of them out, they can be taken to our book store at the Sunnyside Regional Library, 5568 E. Kings Canyon Road. The larger metro branches (Woodward, Central, Fig Garden, etc.) can also accept donations. We just won’t be able to pick them up from there until we have the sale space available.
Can a person bring one of those small personal shopping carts to the sale? My sister sometimes buys ALOT of books and it’s kinda tough to carry them all the way home. You guys know the ones just little push carts really. Thanks, Rene Sadler
Hi Rene! Great question! Yes, you may bring a cart. However, we have folks available to help load purchases into your car. The aisles are very crowded, especially on Thursday and Sunday, so another option is to leave the cart up front and we can help pack your purchases into your cart.
See you there!
Is this cash only or will you take debt cards/ credit cards?
Great question! We will happily trade in cash or plastic!
Yay!!! I’m so ready for this sale ?
We’re so close!
The Sunday $5 bag deal do we bring our own bags or do you provide bags? Thanks, Rene Sadler.
Yes, we provide bags. You may bring a bag if you want something more durable. We will use our bags for the measurement (keeping it fair to all).
Is it one bag per customer
Come get as many bags as you like!
Will be there today.. cant wait..
Do you take VHS movies?
Hi Loren, we do, but only children’s videos.
I’m very excited for this event! Is there information about what kind of books can and cannot be donated? I have a few used books that have writing and highlighted portions in them- can they still be donated?
Certainly! Bring it on down on the 7th and we will get a look at it. Thank you!
Is sunday the only day for the $5 fill a bag? or is everyday the sale? or does each day have its own specials?
Hi Tracy, yes, Sunday is the only day for $5 a bag. This is the only day for specials.
