Decided never again to buy a book, unless it was one I knew I would over and over again.

I am a recovering book buying addict as well. I am now a library addict. My older two boys were part of the Dolly Parton Imagination Library program- it sends kids one new book a month for the first 5 years of life. I didn't sign up the baby because between all those books and the kids books I would buy on my own, the house is full of kids books.
If I must buy a book, I go to Borders- but only because it is closer to my house. Borders and B&N are basically interchangable to me. I prefer Mom & Pop book stores, but I haven't found one here in Indy yet...
