Borders is a joke. Theres one going out of business close by, first they advertised 20-40% off. Of course, that was a horrible exaggeration. Just about everything in the store was 20% off and a few were 30%. Anything above that must have been that near empty Clearance rack that had junk no one cared about. I went in there almost daily, the store continued to stay stocked. Why? Prices were ridiculous. I would often go in and compare prices to Amazon, despite this massive 'sale' of up to 20% off, Amazon still had them beat by sometimes $10. One time I found a book that costs three times as much at Borders. Thats just ridiculous. Now they put up a 'PRICES SLASHED' sign, you go in, same thing as before. You ask what prices are slashed, now the comics are 30% off. Real sale. The store is a joke and will not be missed. Hopefully a book store with some sense will be put in its place.
I used to have a WaldenBooks where I lived. I loved that place until it became a Borders Express.
