Use It: Your Library
It's been a while since I reminded you to use your public library, afterall, it exists for you!
In the last four weeks since I finished school I have borrowed:
9 books
7 audio books (online downloads so I didn't even have to leave home for them)
24 DVDs (includes movies, TV series and workouts)
3 CDs
Given my reluctance to spend money on stuff that might create clutter, I cannot claim a vast savings, but I can figure that I enjoyed materials valued at over $600 at no cost to me (I am very diligent about returning items on time not just so I am not fined, but so that they are available for others to enjoy as well).
I challenge you to visit your library (get a jump start by searching your library's online catalog), find materials that appeal to you and treat yourself to something free (return it on time)!

Great posting, I'm in total agreement with you. The library is great, isn't it? To me, it's a treasure house - I'm like you, I check out movies (you can reserve so much on line beforehand and get them in no time), audio stuff and books. I sometimes first check out some actor whose work I like on IMDb and check the library first. The point is, I no longer go to video stores and have seldom bought a book I haven't first perused thoroughly first (cook books, gardening, history, etc.), thanks to the public library. My entertainment costs me basically nothing and. That is so great.
