Thank you. This is excellent news.
New Blockbuster opening at Butler next. Can’t wait. I bet they’ll have a display of latest Walkman models.
Nah. The Walkmans are for Rite Aid.
Great! B & N not the best but a university town without a large bookstore is an embarrassment. Book Gallery West is nice, but primarily used books.
This is literally awesome. Thank you so much. The nearest B&N is over an hour away. I was upset by it, so this is amazing news.
I love B&N use my nook daily ,get most of my books there but had to do online,so glad it’s coming back.
