Books
If you know me, then you probably know I like to read. Over the years my collection of books has grown some, but late last year I had a major revelation. Why am I buying these books brand new when I could go to a library and take it out for FREE? I did break down and purchase Janet Evanovich's "One for the Money" recently. However instead of buying all eighteen books in the series I plan on taking out of the library the other seventeen I do not own. If you calculate the cost of a book every week, lets say an average cost of 9.99 per book times fifty-six weeks in year it would amount to $559.44. Just think if you did not buy a book every week and instead you frequented the library...Next time you go to purchase a new book think about what you could be saving. Yeah you might need to wait for a new release to get to the library, but in the meantime explore other authors.
