We went on a Friday night around 5:30, they closed at 7:00 pm. there was only about 8-10 other people there, so it was nice. The free books are on a shelf behind the register, ours had a choice of 10 different ones to choose from ranging in all different ages for kids.
I thought thry had great deals, Charlotte's Web-$2.00, Bridge to Terabithia-$2.00,Magic Tree House series, all the Franklin and Arthur books were an additional 25% off. They had a lot of gifty type books too, and Rachael Ray cookbooks.
