Debi (debjm51) | 445 comments I hear ya girlfriend..smiles. But I did really good today I didn't spend a dime on books...smiles. I am shooting for July before I let myself buy another book for me. I do have to buy something for Richard for Father's Day from My kiddo's and the grandkids and I saw at WalMart today a trilogy of Historical Fiction Mystery's which he loves. So as I won't be buying them for me they will be for him. I am not a Historical Fiction reader..smiles. I do have a few on my TBR list just to try it out and couple to finish off 1 series but that is the only reason they are there..LOL!!

Trish Hello, my name is Trish and I did not buy a single book today.

Though I'm not entirely sober yet. The USPS delivered a package and my Mom stopped by to drop off another sixteen books that she just read. Then Amazon emailed to let me know that they just shipped part of yesterday's order.

Technically, still not a purchase however. :) LOL


message 34: by Debi (new)

Debi (debjm51) | 445 comments Your doing good Trish..smiles. I just received an order I bought two weeks ago but I haven't actually bought a book in 8 days now..smiles.

Trish Argh. Starting over again today because when I went to the library to drop off some books yesterday, these were waving hello to me and I couldn't resist. The Blackstock ones look brand new and they were only 25¢ each!!

Private Justice (Newpointe 911, Book 1) by Terri Blackstock Shadow of Doubt (Newpointe 911 Series #2) by Terri Blackstock Trial by Fire (Newpointe 911, Book 4) by Terri Blackstock White Lies (Kell Sabin, #4) by Linda Howard Ask Anyone by Sherryl Woods

Ok, so back to one day.

Debi (debjm51) | 445 comments Okay I am back at 7 hours. We went to a Yard Sale and they had one of my favorite authors books that I didn't have so I picked it up for 25 cents.

Trish I am so pathetic. I must allow my husband to change my Amazon password so that I cannot access that account. I ordered one, used, out-of-print book and it was less than $7 total. Not bad, but still...

sheesh.

So, back to the starting line I go.


message 44: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) I'm back at day 1. I ordered some from B&N yesterday.


message 45: by Debi (new)

Debi (debjm51) | 445 comments Okay Ladies I have a question can I order from B&N Being in Canada??? Or is that site just for residents of the U.S.??


message 46: by Trish (last edited Jun 15, 2010 03:10PM) (new)
