If your LO likes reading where do you buy books? Do you buy them new or used? Or do you go to the library and check out books instead?
-
i buy large batches used off my parenting listserv for great prices. we also should go to the library more often! we do buy books on amazon as well more for charlie since he is into chapter books now while olive has tons of charlie's hand me down books.
-
I mostly just use the library! If LO loves a book a lot, then I consider buying it usually used on amazon, half.com or better world books.
-
We go to the library, but also buy books. Lately I have found lots of great board books at TJ Maxx.
-
We go to used book sales at libraries. Great way to get books for cheap!
-
I like to buy used. Goodwill and garage sales are great for it! Goodwill kids books are only .50 per book.
-
We buy quite a lot of books, and LO goes to library time when he can, around his preschool hours where they have books too. Mostly, we buy his books new, but for DW and me, it's a mix of new and "gently used".
-
I buy new, used and check out books at the library.
-
Before, we bought lots of books, always on sale or used. Now that we live in a country where we don't speak the local language, we rarely buy books except for through amazon a few times per year. We are going to DH's country tomorrow though, so I'm sure we will make at least one bookstore trip to add to our collection! I miss regularly browsing in bookstores though!
-
I don't buy books that often anymore. We do go to the library, but my son doesn't quite understand the concept of borrowing the books and having to return them.
-
We use the library, but I'll buy books when they're a good deal or at a thrift store.
-
I buy when there's a good sale or coupon on Amazon. Mostly I buy a lot lot from scholastic! Random stories for $1 and sets of popular books really cheap!
-
We buy a lot at the thrift store for 50 cents. I wish we made it to the library more often but it doesn't work out well with our work schedules.

My LO is only now at at the stage where we could trust her not to destroy library books (2.5yo) so I think we will do more library time now. But, we have been gifted a ton of books - especially from friends of mine who work in children's publishing. We also buy used ones from garage sales. We love books!
-
I buy tons, used, new, etc I need to start using the library more this is getting out of hand
-
we have been very fortunate to have gotten a lot of books donated from friends whose kids have out grown their books and when someone asks what can they get her for a gift i always say books
