As long as they're making a few bucks.<br /><br />Volunteering is not an option. I'd have to belong to the association that's organizing the sale, and I'm not. <br /><br />This sale only sorts very loosely anyway - kids, crafts, novels, reference, literature, biography, romance, etc. <br /><br />I just get annoyed because I'm there because I love books - sure, I resell some, but most of the money goes back into more books anyway.ANDREAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00138509980267775687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-77838455678484476262011-08-30T14:26:45.276-04:002011-08-30T14:26:45.276-04:00I know its silly, but I don't understand about...I know its silly, but I don't understand about the ISBN scanners.

It's normal for those volunteers to set aside books they find appealing while they're working, then pay for them before they leave.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
