    But I bought their overpriced drink! That's what really pissed me off. Shoulda checked first, I guess. Oh, and it costs $25 a year to be a "Millionaire Member".

    Who buys books?

    And I know there's a somewhat new BAM in Tulsa. Helps that Borders is shutdown.

    Website says $20. Not terrible when you consider you'll save that much with just a couple of book purchases.

    Since giving stuff away has helped destroy our industry, I find it hard to begrudge a company for asking people to pay for a service that does cost that company money.

    Books a Million sucks.

    They should change the name to Books a Dozen.

    I was in one today, and as usual it had a magnificent selection of magazines. And books. At least a million of them. Half of them stacked on the floor. At least the one cashier wasn't in a great hurry.
