Year round we have a HUGE quantity of books on our outdoor cart and in our 'secret back room' that are marked down to just 25 cents each or 5 for $1.00! The stock rotates regularly as well-used books are marked down and added to the inventory. Back room/cart books are marked with a black stripe across the bottom of the spine. They are returnable if you would like, but do not receive further store credit.
