<DIV>I've been to this sale year after year, so if you plan to go, here's a few tips: </DIV>
<DIV>Wear comfortable shoes. Ladies, don't carry a big purse, you want space for books!</DIV>
<DIV>I take a small cart with a box or two that I bring, to stack my books onto, so I can drag them with me in ease. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Enjoy, Hillary</DIV>
