QUOTE]Remember going into a book store and finding CHAIRS to sit on, while sampling a book?[/QUOTE]
We never had B&N in my area, way back we had Walden Books, a smallish store inside the mall, with no comfort like chairs. We did have Border's at the, at the time, newish strip mall.
The last time we shopped there, not long before the store went under, it had couches and chairs, and a coffee bar. The place was full of people drinking coffee and reading, and sitting on the floor in the aisles, reading. So many on the floors, you couldn't get near the books.
The strange thing was...nobody was in line buying anything. The store was also dirty and not being kept up. What we did look at was expensive. The prices they had for toys and games were ridiculous.
