Want to save money every day? And do you like to read?
It's a great activity, full of health benefits. They even say it can save your life!
So why buy books regularly? At the end of the year, that's quite a budget.
Not to mention that it takes up a lot of space!
Instead of buying all the latest books and DVDs, I borrow them from my neighborhood public library.
And I make good money savings without depriving me of reading.
Take my tip and save your pennies... Watch:
1. Go to the library nearest you.
2. Sign up. It doesn't even take five minutes at the reception.
3. Once you have your card and are officially registered, all you have to do is borrow books and DVDs galore!
There you go, you can now read lots of books for free :-)
Simple, practical and effective!
Of course, there is a quota and a deadline to meet. You can still borrow up to ten books.
Personally, I think it's great.
It's true that once read, my books pile up on the shelves and I never open them again, so why buy them?
I borrow from the municipal library whenever I feel like it, and return everything when I'm done.
For practical information on municipal libraries , go to the website of the town hall of Paris or your city.
You will get the list of all the libraries near you, the opening hours.
To save time and get your library card quickly, you can download the registration form and fill it out from home.
All you have to do is sign it and present it with your identity card once there to receive your card, which will be valid for one year.
In some regions or neighborhoods, there is no library...
But sometimes there are bookmobiles.
These are mobile libraries, often small trucks that circulate from village to village or from neighborhood to neighborhood. Find out!
A subscription card costs next to nothing when it's not downright free .
In Paris, once registered in a library for free, I have access to all the other libraries in the city, and God knows if there are any!
I can borrow twenty books for three weeks, and I renew easily on the Internet if I haven't had time to read or see everything .
That is the demand of the people ? You can also buy used books, it's much cheaper.
And did you know that there is the same for games?
These are toy libraries. These are places where you can borrow toys for almost free.
