My one year old likes board books. A lot. I read ~10 of them/day to her. I am beginning to know them by heart. It was time for new books. On the advice of some moms on a mom msg board, I went to Goodwill. I spent $25 on books at $0.79 each. Fantastic way to save my sanity.

Best part - I can turn them back in to Goodwill for them to sell them to somebody else, and get a tax write-off for the donation.

And they did offer gift cards. I am thinking of putting a Goodwill GC on her Christmas list to be used for more books. It sure beats paying $6.95 new, or even $3.50 at the used book store!!
