DH and I used to pick up 4-6 books every time we shopped at Costco. We finally decided that was silly and started using our local library. I love looking for the books I want to read online, reserving them online, and renewing them online if necessary. I haven't ventured into e-books yet, but I'm sure that's coming. Then I won't even have to go to the library to pick them up and return them!
