I visited Borders shortly after 6:00 pm on Friday, July 22.
Today's event: Liquidation! And everything's on sale!
But prepare for a bit of a wait....
Hope you don't need to look something up on the computer...
...or get a drink or snack while you shop.
Kids and Bargain sections are a mess...
...and the History section is being plundered.
It was a madhouse and I didn't buy anything since Kids and Teens books were only 10% off. I considered myself lucky just to get out of the overcrowded lot! Even Christmas crowds were never like this at Borders.

It's just sad to me.
ReplyDelete@Rebecca It's very sad! I kept thinking, "Where were all you people before?" I'm losing one of my favorite hangouts! :(
ReplyDeleteThis makes me sad. There won't be any bookstores in my area anymore if Borders liquidates here too... except the used bookstore. :-(
ReplyDelete@WildIrishRose33 I'm afraid they're all closing. There was talk of Books-A-Million buying 30 stores, but they never reached a deal.
