NoVA Frugal Alert! Used Books! DC/MD - BOGO Used Clothes!
Do you like used books? Then get ready! This Saturday the Goodwill at Glebe Road and Route 50 is having a book sale.
The last one on June 9th got rained on pretty badly. But there’s a sign out today that says there’s another one “This Saturday”. All books were a dollar each at the last one, so I expect the same for this one too!
Full details of the last event from their Goodwill Good Neighbor Newsletter:
The Goodwill Retail Store at 10 South Glebe Road in Arlington, VA will be holding a major $1 Book Sale in the parking lot on Saturday, June 9th from 10AM to 6PM. All books are only $1 with proceeds benefiting Goodwill’s job training and employment programs for people with disadvantages and disabilities. Shoppers who purchase one of Goodwill’s environmentally friendly tote bags can also stuff the bag with as many books as it will carry for only $20!!
The full address:
Goodwill
10 S GLEBE RD
ARLINGTON,VA 22204
(703) 769-3711
By Metro:
Take the Orange Line to Ballston and then #23 A/C Metrobus towards Crystal City. There is also an ART (Arlington Rapid Transit) bus that follows the same route until Columbia Pike. (And you are going to get off way before Columbia Pike.
An alternate Metro route is to take the Yellow Line to the Pentagon and take one of the #16 buses down Columbia Pike, however, that will be a far walk to the store with an armload of books, so transfer to a northbound #23 to Ballston/Tysons Corner.

Oh dear. I think this is going to be tempting.
BTW, I’m not ignoring your tag, I’m just doing a bunch of projects and need more mental energy to come up with a non-boring list.
