Going To My Happy Place

Tomorrow I'm going to one of my favorite, Happy Places, Books-A-Million. I haven't been there since autumn.

How sad is that?

OK, maybe it isn't so sad when you realize the book store is about 50 miles from my home.

It is one of only two Books-A-Million in my area, the other is near Morgantown, WV. We have Barnes and Noble all over the Pittsburgh Area, but I will still travel to Wheeling for this store.

Why?

Coupons and good coffee.

Books-A-Million always has awesome coupons and Joe Muggs is some pretty damn good coffee.

So tomorrow afternoon, I'll be in my happy place, browsing the clearance books and generally enjoying life!

Woo hoo!

The Most Evil Coupon Ever

About 3 times a week I get emails from Books-A-Million, my favorite book store chain. There's one problem. The two stores that are in my area are both about 50 miles away. One is located in Morgantown, WV and the other in Triadelphia, WV near Wheeling.

~sigh~

So when I get coupons like this one when there's over a foot of snow on the ground, I get cranky.

See I have a theory about Books-A-Million and their super awesome coupons. They send them out when there's absolutely no way that I can go, either because of the weather (2 ft of snow on the ground and counting) or because no one else wants to go, and I don't drive that far on my own.

Oh and how about that coffee coupon there, as an added taunt to make me aggravated.

One last thing, I have a $25 Gift Card and this would get me a bonus book for my card. It sucks that it can't be used online.
