1. Register you B&N account with an US shipping and billing address. Any valid US address will work, just google something. The billing address is not checked, so your non-US credit card will work fine.

2. Install an US VPN like Hotspot Shield (free) or AlwaysVPN ($8.50) on your PC.

3. To buy books using your PC first start the VPN. When the VPN is active go to the B&N website and buy your books/magazines/apps. Sync the library on your Nook to download the books to your Nook using Wifi.

4. If you have a NC or NT you can install the free Puffin browser app. This browser uses an US cloud, so within this browser you will have an US IP-address. If you go to the B&N website within this browser, you can buy books using your NC/NT.
