How many times have you kicked yourself for jumping the gun and buying a CD that you heard was good only to find yourself listening to it once, shoving it into the CD holder in your car, and asking yourself, ‘What the h3ll was I thinking spending $14.99 on a Piles CD during a recession?’
If you’re like me this recession has put a damper on buying some of the things that you love most , like CDs, movies, and magazines. You know the li’l luxuries that make living alone a bit more pleasant. Look no further than your local library. It’s your one-stop shop for all things media—and its free. I am fortunate enough to live near two awesome libraries. I go the library-either one or the other-just about every day for everything from using the internet to search for jobs or cop that new Estelle CD that I have requested twice already.
Most libraries you can take out books, books on CD and tape, music CDs, DVDs, and even some magazines. While you’re there you can browse your favorite magazines and papers from all over the US, get on the computers, use the free Wi-Fi, join a book club or attend one of the several programs for the young and old. The one library that I frequent has a advanced website which allows you to download books onto your IPod , MP3 player, or home computer. Just think about the money that you could be saving if you got DVDs and CDs from the library and cancelled all of your magazine subscriptions and took an hour to read the ones over in the cozy, nook in the back of the library.
