We don't have Barnes & Noble in Canada, so I always visit the store when I'm in Florida. It's close enough that I can go there on my bike.
It's embarrassingly middle class to shop in, so I always take a list so I can grab what I want and get out quick.
One thing I've noticed, they never have bags at the checkout. They always say they're out of bags. Lots of stores have a No Bags policy and I get it. In Ontario NO Bags is the law.
So, why doesn't B&N just say they don't give bags? Instead, they're always apologetic about it, saying they're all out of bags?
Acceptable registrations in the queue through April 26 at 9:00p ET have now been activated. Enjoy! -M.W.

Florida has a book store? I'm shocked.

Yes, there is a book store and it has one special rack featuring books that have been banned in Florida.
I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!
Re: Barnes & Noble
I'm thinking they sell a wide selection of book bags with their logo.
