Default Nice Find

Was in Barnes and Noble to buy a gift, saw a coffee table type book titled "Corvette Chronicle" with a yellow ZR1 on the cover. Sitting on the "Bargain books / last chance " tables for $19.95. About 300 pages, lots of nice pictures and history. Great chapter on the C6. If you are near a Barnes and Noble I'd recommend looking for it.

But....you didn't say if you bought it or not. Did you sit back with it in a chair like everybody else seems to do at Barnes?

Not sure how they afford the rent on those big stores.

Yeah, I bought it. Its sitting on my coffee table right now. Well worth the 20 bucks to me. Sorry if I left that out.

Last time I was in a Barnes and Noble was over 3 years ago . . . but I never was one to just hang out in retail stores or restaurants. To each his own I guess.

They make profits from the Starbucks inside them, and their digital business.
