Awesome week with seven finds including five for £2. These five were from the 3 for £1 deal (also picked up an unisgned book). I felt guilty, and offered the chap more as I showed him all the autographed books. He told me not to worry about it, as they rake in a lot even with their low prices, and the reason they keep it low is to keep books in circulation like the Books For Free people. It stops unread books ending up as landfill. Many of these books were like new as well.
Higgy HB 1/1 2011 by Alastair Hignell - £2.99
Like new, and Foyles signed first edition sticker on front.
Wogan's Twelve HB 1/1 2007 by Terry Wogan - £1.99
He signed these locally when the book came out, so no surprise to find one of these. Another book that is like new.

Winning It Back HB 1/1 2011 by Gary Wiltshire
