the Big Bad Wolf Books Sale 2010

yes, call me crazy or what, i've been hunting for books for the past 2 days, back-to-back..! my first time ever attending the Big Bad Wolf Books Sale at South City Plaza, Seri Kembangan...couldn't believe my eyes there are so many books (i mean it, MANY) at very low prices (yes, i really mean it, VERY, VERY LOW)....

went there yesterday with my dear hubby (managed to persuade him to come along with me), leaving the kids behind after taking advices from my friends who went there on the very first day of sale...we arrived very early in the morning at around 8.45 am..a few people had arrived and started queue-ing (gosh, we the booklovers are really crazy!)..wo, we went to have a plate of roti canai and teh tarik just outside the mall and went back in at around 9.15 am..the queue was a bit longer, but we were still quite front...waited and waited until they finally opened the grill barrier at around 9.40am..everybody rushed in and ran towards the entry door..being a first timer, we followed the crowd...

we were kept waiting again at the entrance to the hall for another 20 min..when they finally open the door, everybody rushed in like mad people, grabbing boxes, pushing their trolley bags and we just carry our reusable shopping bags...we made a separate ways looking for our books...i can't believe it i grabbed all the books that i touched...the prices were so knocking cheap....


i wanted to look for fictions but then there were so many people and so many books to look at, i didn't know where to start...finally we made our payment after 40 min browsing through the big hall full of books...and guess what was the total amount..? RM 338 for 42 books...!! that's roughly about RM 8 each...!

just look at these fantastic books...

yes, we went in again today...it was quite unplanned, since i had a breastfeeding consultation to attend to this moring and everything settled at around 11.20am...along with the kids this time, we made our way hunting for the wolf again...with Imtiaz securely tugged in his sling, Jihan held his papa's hand, we were lost in the sea of books and people...today's aim- looking for some chick flick stuffs for my sister and some other good books sighted...

so, our earnings for today's catch- RM 236 for 24 books! that's less than RM10 per book..

i'm going crazy with this sale...i think i have enough stocks of books to read that can last for the entire year...me myself not pretty sure when i'm going to finish reading all those books...



enjoy yourselves looking at our books... ; )
