I noticed many of you like to read. You need to check out on Amazon the top 100 free kindle books each day or just do a search on Amazon for free e-books. I have found some real gems, some that went to a $9 price a day or two after I got it free. You can also search by category. Just for fun one day when I was bored, I went through one year of free books I had downloaded, and compared them to the current price. The free books I had gotten were now totaling $270+ compared to the year I got them free.

If you have the urge to shop, buy and click "buy" this is a great way to satisfy that urge. If you don't like the free book after you have downloaded it, then just delete it. I have discovered some great authors doing this. Sometimes, they will offer a free book from a noted author (rare) to hook you into buying more from that author. Sometimes, an author will have a series of books, but they will offer the first in the series to introduce you to the series.

These can be downloaded to your Kindle or Kindle app on a tablet or computer. There were free books on organizing at one time. Searching free books will keep the hands and mind busy, and if you get one or two, you still have the "thrill" of the purchase at no cost.

KonaKat,

I just downloaded a bunch of the free books from Amazon. Instead of buying any more books, I'm having my library order them for me now. There is also a website called BookBub.com. You pick the subjects that you are interested in and they send you links to free books or very low-cost books. I got a lot of really good recipe books that were free.

Thanks to all of you who have offered suggestions for saving money on books!
