Bagging a bargain!

Bonjour blogettes!
I hope you're all well?

I just thought I'd write a quick blog about some purchases I just made!

Since we had to move house unexpectedly (and therefore hadn't budgeted for the move) money is pretty tight. That coupled with the fact our Internet won't be connected until the 23rd July has meant I've been pretty bored!

So, today I drove to the Westfield in Derby and popped into 'the works' to see if they had any good books for me to read. Boy did I get a surprise!



(silly phone has got this the wrong way round, sorry!)

'Sunshine' by Robert Mighall




RRP: £16.99
I paid: 49p!!!

'Re-Gifters' by Mike Carey, Sonny Liew and Marc Hempel


RRP: £6.99
I paid: 99p!!!

'Julian Corkle is a Filthy Liar' by D J Connell



RRP: £10
I paid: 49p!!!



These 3 were on a '3 for £5' offer!

'My Single Friend' by Jane Costello



RRP: £6.99

'Sugar and Spice' by Lauren Conrad



RRP: £6.99

'From Notting Hill with Love...Actually' by Ali McNamara



RRP: £6.99!

All in all I got a mega bargain! 6 books for £7! Proof that you should always shop around, these books would have cost me roughly £54 had I bought them all in WHSmiths or Waterstones or somewhere :)

I can't wait to read all of these, would you like to see book reviews on any of them?

    Have you tried joining your local library, there's loads of books there for free and most offer Internet for free or a small charge :) (i'm a librarian so any chance to push the system :p)
