The winner of the inaugural Gift Card Sunday is…Jennie Fitzhugh! Thanks to Jennie being an RLP Twitter follower, she has won a $25 gift card provided by The Title Wave Used Bookstore!  Jennie has 48 hours to claim this prize by commenting on this post, otherwise the Title Wave gift card will carry over to next weeks Gift Card Sunday winner.

Here is a little bit about The Title Wave Used Bookstore:

Browse through 20,000 used books, audiobooks, CDs, DVDs, videos, magazines and cassettes at bargain prices, starting at $2 for hardback novels and nonfiction. Some items start at $.25

Discover great selections of children’s books and large-print items. Check regularly; the inventory changes every day.

A faithful, hard-working corps of more than 50 volunteers staffs the store, handling all aspects of the operation. The books, discards from Multnomah County Library’s collection, are removed from the library’s computer catalog, stamped, sorted, researched, priced and shelved for retail.

The store opened for business in March 1988. Since then,

  • 700,000+ books have been recycled.
  • More than a million and a half in revenue has been generated.
  • Volunteers have given 130,000+ hours of time.

I would like to send out a big thank you to the local bookstores who make Gift Card Sunday possible: Broadway Books, The Title Wave Used Bookstore, Annie Bloom’s Books, A Children’s Place Bookstore, and Second Glance Books!  Please remember to support these wonderful neighborhood indie bookstores by shopping at one of them whenever you are looking for your next book.
