$10 for $20 Worth of Used Books

The shop stocks adult hardcovers ($5–$8), paperbacks ($2.50–$6), children's books ($1.50–$3), and young-adult books ($2.50–$5) along with an eclectic mix of genres on the dollar shelf.

Another Read Through

Inside one of the only LEED Platinum–certified buildings in Portland, books for all ages line the shelves by the thousands. The collection is overseen by Elisa, who doubles as the owner of Another Read Through and its resident bibliophile. To give back to Portland, she donates a percentage of each quarter’s sales to a community or social-justice organization, which patrons can suggest on her website. She prices used and donated new books accordingly and adorns her literary lair with flourishes such as an indoor tree and bookmarks that youngsters can plant to grow wildflowers—an improvement to most bookmarks, which don’t even grow books. Though about half of the space is dedicated to adult fiction, the other half spans the genre spectrum from kids’ mysteries and science fiction to true crime.

The Groupon Guide to: Buying a Car

Buying a car is an intimidating experience. The man looks at you. He wants to sell you the car for more than it is worth. Beat the man. Beat the man until he cries with these tips:

• Always drive the car. This will let you make sure that it is free of the five most deadly species on earth and that it has a floor and the dealer isn’t Flintstone-ing you (a technique wherein the dealer sells you a car with no floor named after Flint Stone, an early dishonest car salesman).

• Immediately list everything you hate about the car. It has a nick here, a dent there. It is the same color as your rival’s eyes. You looked at them in a field. You were the last man to look at those eyes. Your rival sold you a lemon. He is gone.

• When the dealer says the price, scream. Oh, scream until your nose bleeds and all of creation fears your machinations. Oh, scream your voice raw, honey. Good heavens!

• Ride away on your bicycle. This was good practice for when you really decide to buy a car.

Be sure to scream as fiercely as a newborn babe or warrior brave. Scream with all your grit, sweet honey.
