looked at books on line and wanted to buy it but thought, I think I have that book somewhere and then when you go look for it you can't find it???

I just know that when I order this book, I'll find it in my book stash!!!

I need to make a list on my computer for easy access!

I've done that plenty of times. I'll be in a book store and see one I want to buy, and then think that maybe I've already got it at home, but not knowing if I do or not, I'll buy it. I do that with magazines a lot, too. Sometimes they get bought twice, so I give the extra one to my sister. It's not like I'm wasting money that way.

I do stuff like that all the times, especially with magizines and notions. My sister looks forward to my mistakes as when I find doubles I send one to her.

Oooooohhhh yes!!!!:oops:
I have a friend who does the same thing with book and patterns, so we do a lot of swapping.

I do it to often. Came home with a new book the other day went to put it away and there were two of the same book I had forgotten I had already bought.

There is a phone ap that you can scan the book and it will add to a list...either one you will want or one you have read or bought.
