  So I recently attended a biannual "book sale" with scholastic for the first time. I have to say I was very disappointed.
  
  My biggest disappointment is in the atrocious "organization" or lack there of. The books are simply thrown up on shelves in NO sense of cataloging or order, none. So if you are looking for say stilton books specifically or daisy meadows fairy magic series or Rick Riordan, 39 clues, etc. or any book specifically. Good friggin luck finding them! It's just a scavenger hunt and time and brain suck! Baby books and stuff all mixed in.
  
  First. At least Organize all books of same series/title together in order. So all Stilton books TOGETHER. Then say young children books like baby/toddler/preschooler books. Don't make me have to weed through that stuff. Then categorize by age/grade again keeping books in a series together! I sae many books all
  Over repeatedly even the same title. Or one was paperback and clear ok the other side of warehouse a hardback copy. Why not put these all together for goodness sakes?!
  
  Then as you have weeded through all the single books and maybe see a set or two of say fairy magic books. Then get to the end there are these section of all the book sets/bundles. So you found 2 or 3 of this or that then go tonfind they have the collection available.
  
  Discounts are willy nilly and random. Not many discounted. I spent way more than I ought to have. Even with their discounts and coupon.
  
  Most books were simply 25% off their list price unless otherwise noted. But then get an email from scholastic for 30% entire store online. Geez. And several books I found 40+% off on amazon for exact same book and cover.
  
  The fill a box for $25 section was full of literal junk books. Stuff I have seen at the dollar tree like john and Kate +8, seriously scholastic?!?! And a bunch of unheard of japanese manga and other really odd junk.
  
  Be smart folks. Shop wise if you dare. It isn't all it's cracked up to be if you are truly savung money or needing specific titles. Just look on amazon or use the scholastic website discounts.
