So, you'll be happy to know that I seized the bull by the horns and actually stopped at the second-hand bookstore near the bottle depot!! I parked, took my box of books out of the car and went into the store. At which point I was asked if these were all previous purchases from the chain of bookstores... If they are, then they'll accept them, but if they're not... if they are "new" second-hand books, then they can't take them. They are the only one in the chain that have that policy!! (I think they are a new location too...)... Sigh... Deep sigh...
Mind you, she did tell me that there was a "real" location just a bit further down McLeod Trail that would take all books. And it wasn't too far away... in fact, it's probably exactly the same distance from home as the bottle depot one. So I went there, and got $33 in credit for more books!! Very good... Mind you, now I have a box of rejects in my truck that need to go somewhere... Wonder how long it will take me to get of those books!!
