since moving to the new place, i've been taking mental notes of restaurants and shops that have piqued my interest. one place that has been floating around my thoughts lately was the one dollar bookstore. the name of the store is pretty self explanatory but in case you are still wondering, it's a store that sells books. for only $1. every book. $1. no joke. whether it's a recent hardcover bestseller or a vintage cookbook for entertaining from the 70's, everything is only $1 and i can't stress that enough (even though i'm trying). what i loved most about this store was that i could be completely nostalgic and purchase some favorite reads from my childhood (hello, little house in the big woods and babysitter's club) and at the same time, get around to buying those that i am on the fence about. summer sisters for $10? we'll see. summer sisters for $1? hell yes.i happily put my pile of light reading on the counter and then just as happily handed over my $6 + tax. next time, i plan on spending a good hour or 2 perusing through the various vintage cookbooks. 60's dinner party, anyone?
one dollar bookstore is located at 8520 E Chapman Ave, Orange, CA 92869
