Sell your books at Ukazoo


This week I discovered a new way to recycle books:  trade them in for cash or store credit at Ukazoo Books in Towson.  A stack of my gently-used hardback books brought $8 cash or $9 store credit... so I used the store credit and left with a couple of used audio books.  Score!

You can peruse the shelves while you're waiting for the Book Buyback clerk to process your books, or you can choose the auto-accept option and leave with a receipt for the books they decide to buy.  The unsold books you leave behind will be recycled into paper products.

Let me sum up:  unclutter your bookshelves AND cash in or trade for better books.  What's not to like about that?

Alternate options:  www.bookthing.org and www.paperbackswap.com as mentioned in an earlier blog post.
