I recently came into a little bit of extra cash, so I tell my wife that I will buy her a dishwasher and a new refridgerator if she allowed me to buy all of the books that I lacked to complete my collection. (18 total) What she did not know is that I was intending on buying the appliances for her for Christmas, regardless if she said yes or no...so I banked on the assumption that I could get something out of it! hehehehe</font> |
You're telling me your book collection is complete? Rare sight...wow!
So are you a poker champion where you come from Larry, or were you desperate to have something to do while you can't reach your computer? |

A week is a long time, con-padre! Isn't it cool that I know what 18 books I need to finish my complete collection, and I will be buying them tonight?>>>>!!!</font> |
It's absolutely great [img]smile.gif[/img]
You just hope the books you want aren't sold out before you get there (the shopping tales you hear these days... [img]smile.gif[/img] ) I'll keep my fingers crossed ;) |
~In the background, you hear the happy, happy, joy, joy song...~
<font color="silver"> I got them! I bought 11 books and have 6 on order! The ladies at the store were amazed and excited that I was there to bu over $100.00 of books! Now, the best part...Being a member of Walden Books club, I get 1 point for every dollar spent, and after 100, I get a $5.00 gift certificate! But today was double points day, so I got $10.00 certificate, plus the 10% discount saved me $11.00, and for buying a certain number of book (10 or more on sinlge purchase) I got another $5.00 certificate, and a carrying tote bag for all of them! Now, I own 112 Forgotten Realms books, with 6 more on their way in 1 -2 weeks. Therefore, I have the entire collection of paperback(not including Elminster in Hell and Drizzt's new one). I had not planned on it, but they had the sequal to the Summoning, by Troy Denning! How can any man be happier than this???</font> ~screaming~ |

Though I believe I could easily use 10000$ on books if I found a good store with fantasy and sci-fi books..... |
112 FR Books......... now thats an achievement.... just like buying 18 books at once.
Kinda makes my FR total of 4 look stupid Well done Larry =) |
WOW! 112 Realms books! That IS impressive! And how many books total in your library?
|
Holy Moly!
112 fantasy/sci-fi books! :eek: That's some impressive collection you got there ;) I've just got my pay, and think I'll pay a visit to THE fantasy book store tomorrow.. I guess I've spent about 600$ there... [img]smile.gif[/img] I can see a happy smile spread on their faces when I enter that store :D |
