Borders vs Barnes & Noble

Waldenbooks still exists in my hometown in the mall; it was better than the Borders Express here, but not as good as a standalone.

As far as I know....no there is no Half Priced Books here (that is what HPB stands for, right? lol). But then again, I always just end up going to B&N, so if there is one, it's probably on one of the far ends of town, but I doubt it.

Shooot all those reasons don't compare to the fact that I'm in West TX, so that should be a reason you WANT to visit.

OMG Waldenbooks was my store!!! I'd go to the mall just for Waldenbooks. The last one we had closed down about 10 or so years ago

Well, some folks beat me to it and explained about Jerry World. Yes, that has screwed up all traffic in Arlington.
