Big Book Sale!

Just a quick update in regards to a BIG SALE we're having at Pennywise Books. Once again, we have more books that we have space for, so we need to make room. Thus, we are having our first "Spring-Cleaning-Word-of-Mouth Sale."

On the first two Saturdays in June (June 6 and June 13), EVERYTHING in the store will be 30% off -- new books, discount books, used books -- EVERYTHING! (Except books sold on consignment).
As this is a "word-of-mouth" sale, tell your friends and family that like to read. This sale is your opportunity to stock up for your summer reading!

A couple of rules:

(1) This sale will be on June 6 and June 13 only. Sale prices will not be offered during the week. Therefore, if there is a book you've seen on the shelf that you are interested in, you might want to consider either getting here early on a sale day, or pick it up in advance of the sale to be sure you get it at our already low prices.

(2) You cannot put books on hold until sale day. That's not playing fair.

That's it! Tell everyone you know who needs/wants something to read for the summer that Pennywise Books is having an amazing sale on June 6 and 13 (10:00 AM - 5:00 PM), where everything is 30% off.

For more information, contact us at: pennywise@westman.wave.ca or call 728-2665.

We look forward to seeing you all soon!

Free Comic Book Day

The first Saturday of every May (this year, May 2) is Free Comic Book Day. Normally, we don't stock regular magazine-type comics, but because we are totally overstocked on one or two graphic novels, we will be giving away free graphic novels all day. That's MAY 2, starting at 10:00 AM.

This is not an invitation to walk in and pick up whatever you want. The free books will be available at the counter and last only as long as the stock does.

Also, remember that the Manitoba Arts Council will be making a presentation Saturday morning, if you are interested in taking part in that session.

I hope to see you all on Saturday!
