I went to the "sale" yesterday and almost every book is at 20%. Only thing I saw at 40% was magazines.

So I could have printed out a coupon and gone to a store that was not closing and gotten a better deal on any book I was looking for.

I have to assume they're gonna ratchet up the discounts shortly.
