PERSONAL: not!book shopping

And so the volunteering stint is over for now. Books, which had already been on offer at a blanket price, were put on a better offer: a 'twofer' only more generous. The reason being that there were a lot of books that had been donated in the back room. So much of charity shop activity is based on the donations, which is one of those things that you know, but know better from experience. A lot of people were gleeful about their bargains. For some reason, more books seemed to sell in the afternoons.

There were no books that I wanted to buy, although there were a couple of familiar books I own and love. Is it just me, or do others get possessed of an urge to play with the displays so that their favourites are more prominnt sometimes when you're in a shop?
