I love a good sale


Hate that my local Waldenbooks is closing, but loving the sales they've been having. Manga was 60% off, so of course I took advantage. ^_^

I bought:

Fushigi Yugi: Genbu Kaiden Vol. 9 (The right volume this time!) 
Tsubasa: Those With Wings Vol. 3 (The last volume, so expect a review fairly soon)
xxxHolic Guide
Angel's Coffin
(One-shot, so I'll be reviewing that as well)
Butterflies, Flowers Vol. 1 (Josei, so I had to get it.)
High School Debut Vols. 1, 3, 4, 12

Yeah, I really wish they had more volumes of High School Debut in stock. :( They didn't really have much of a selection left, unfortunately, or else I would have bought a lot more. Actually, I'm kinda kicking myself for not picking up the four volumes of Skip-Beat they had left. With Butterflies, Flowers and High School Debut both being new series for me and a new Yuu Watase series (Arata: The Legend, surprisingly a shonen title) coming out in either March or April -- can't remember off the top of my head -- I figured that was enough for new series, but I am planning to read Skip-Beat at one point, so I should have just grabbed those volumes for super-cheap while I had the chance. Oh, well. They were later volumes, anyway, so I probably would have been totally lost trying to read them now.

My employer is dismantling practically all of its Waldenbooks stores in favor of transferring those resources to the Borders superstores. Unfortunate, but it does increase the chances of my job continuing to exist.

Butterflies, Flowers Vol. 1 (Josei, so I had to get it.)

Heh, I bought this for the same reason. There's not enough josei. It's okay so far; hope it gets better.
