I also have a membership at B&N. I use mine quite a bit. I love the e-mail coupons.
I have a membership to B&N. I've never heard of the other store.
B&N and that reminds me it's expiring soon and I have a gift certificate. Didn't use it that often this year with Borders being so close. Maybe I renew it. I think it's expiring the end of July not sure.
Mine expired the end of May and I forgot. Oops!!
Oh man I have never heard of paying for a membership to a bookstore. Sorry ladies but I find that really odd..smiles.
I pay for a members IReward card at Chapters. I get 10% off all book purchased.
Debi, you get a discount if you have a membership.
We pay full price at our bookstore..that is why I usually buy my books at Walmart you get a 30% off and then because of Richard being an employee I get another 10% off. If I buy a book for 9.99 I get $3.00 off. We don't have any of the big bookstore changes around here that is why I more then likely haven't hear of it and thought it was odd..LOL!! Didn't mean to put anyone down or anything..sorry if I came across that way...smiles.
No problem Debi. You can't order from Barnes and Noble.com?Our Walmart doesn't have a good selection, that's why I don't buy books from there anymore.
Ours has most of the new releases in paperback and hardcover. I usually start with the library and if I can't get it there then I buy it..but if the librarian gives me hope they might get it in I will wait it out..LOL!!! I haven't bought a hardcover in such a long time. I figure hey if I can get two paperbacks/mass market books to one Hardcover I will wait till it comes out in paperback..LOL!I will have to check out the B&N site..smiles.
Before I moved here we had just gotten a B&N huge bookstore it looked like a huge library. I was in seventh heaven..LOL!! I use to get my books there but didn't have the membership thing then that I can remember or I just wasn't offered it..LOL!!
I have one of those rare "life time" chapters cards.when chapters first opened..they had these..I never have to renew..so..does that mean when I die I can take the card with me but not my books? umm :(
If so, what is the price? The benefits? Do you have to renew it's each year? Do you use it often?
I have memberships at both Barnes and Noble and Books A Million. My B&N membership is $25 a year, which is a little expensive but I use it so much it really pays for itself. BAM only recently started to charge for their membership. I think it is $20 a year. With both memberships I get 10% off my in store and online purchases, B&N sends discounts for 15%-30% off in addition to that 10%. I use my discount card all the time.
