      The Rest of the Story... 
Gayle 
   
   We are still spinning from a month of celebrating our 10th anniversary.  Thanks to all of you who participated.  It was great to see so many friends.  
   If you have checked out the 'free stuff' list lately, you have noticed that we offer some pretty special services.  
   GUARANTEE:  Several years ago we began offering the 'been there/done that guarantee.  If you get a book home and you have already read it (and you don't want to read it again) you can bring it back to the store for an equal exchange.  We don't want you to be stuck with a book you have already read!
   FREE DELIVERY:  Are you home-bound?  Do you know someone who is?  We deliver FREE to your home.  We don't want you to be without your books.  Just call the store and let us know what books you want.  We do ask that you order at least 3 books.  We accept check or cash as payment at the time of delivery.
    STORE CREDIT:   Yes, your store credit does expire.  If you do not use your store credit account for TWO FULL and CONSECUTIVE YEARS, we close your account.  If you are moving from the area, you can transfer your account to friends or family.  Also, you can always let us know that you want your account to remain active and we will be glad to do that. 
   KIDS CLUB:  Please remind your friends and family that we have a KIDS CLUB.  Children up through 6th grade can bring their children's books in for a straight-across exchange for other children's books.  There is no cost to join this club.  It's a great way to get your children involved in buying their own books.
                                                                    Happy reading--Gayle
