ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) – Books by the Pound does precisely what you’d anticipate– by promoting books by the pound. The shop held its tender opening Saturday.
The Coombes household says they take pleasure in studying and didn’t like the concept of those books ending up within the landfill. So, they determined to place them in large containers hoping the books get cherished once more.
“Now we have all of our books sorted by style and folks go in. They’re in nice big containers. They dig by way of the containers and so they discover what they need,” mentioned Co-owner Monica Coombes. “It’s a treasure hunt each time you are available. Every thing is restocked on a regular basis in the course of the week. So, it’s not all the time gonna be the identical stuff right here.”
You may go to the bookstore Monday-Friday 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Should you don’t need to go to the shop, you may store on-line.
Books by the Pound is planning an even bigger, grand opening occasion for the long run.
