We will NOT be getting one nearby in Vermont, I can tell ya that right now. But Littleton is booming. In the last few years, they've gotten Wal-Mart, Staples and Shaw's, and now Home Depot is coming. I think it's about time they got a book store, too...though I know that one will be a bit trickier as it WILL put the one bookstore in town out of business. The other stores weren't really competitors...

But IMO that bookstore deserves to be put out of business. They carry mostly garbage (lotta New Age and liberal crap), and they charge literally 18-20 bucks for a CD. I buy things that are on clearance once in awhile, but that's it. I'm all for supporting the local economy, even if it means a SLIGHTLY higher price...but only if it's a place worth supporting.

I thought liberal-types like big book stores.

Personally I don't think I could live farther than a half-hour drive from a big bookstore. I did mention that my apartment is walking distance to the B&N, didn't I?
