| My BBW Book Stash |
My other advice? Bring a trolley bag because you WILL get carried away. You can choose to use the boxes provided by BBW to help you with the books, but unless you have strong arms, you're not going to get very far.
You can, however, leave your unpaid stash at the storage counter while you continue your book browsing.

| Boxes! |
I woke up in the wee hours of the morning last Sunday just to get to the sale by 7am. There was ample parking space and it wasn't too crowded yet.

The best part? No long queues at the cashier.

I make it a point to leave by 11-ish. That's when it begins to get crowded. My visit to the BBW has always been peaceful and pleasant. You are looking at a pro. Hehe.
Check out some of the books I saw at the cookery corner.

I bet you recognise some of these chefs! Priced between RM15 to RM30, these books are a steal, I say.

The Big Bad Wolf gives out bookmarks to good customers - one at the cashier when payment is made and another for filling up a survey form.

These cute button badges cost RM10 per pack. I wanted it but was torn between spending it on books or badges. I let the badges go.

If you need any assistance, don't hesitate to howl, I mean ask. BBW has hired the friendliest peeps to attend to you.

The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale ends on 16th Dec 2014. Have I mentioned that it's non-stop? That's right, you can shop at 3am if you like. It doesn't close for the day.
Location : MIECC, The Mines
Go and be wow-ed.
Neat. Now that is a lot of books to choose from.
ReplyDeleteSo many that it was hard for me to decide!
DeleteHeard so much about this books sale, wish I can visit it one day.
ReplyDeleteEz, if you're planning on a trip to KL, aim for December within the first two weeks. And, book a one-day stay at the hotel located across the road from MIECC where the BBW sale is - that is, if they don't change location next year! ;)
DeleteI wish I could fly over now!!!
ReplyDeleteCome - it's once in a lifetime! ;)
DeleteHi Sharon! good catch! ehehehehe
ReplyDeleteAre you going too? BBW just announced that they've brought in trolley baskets. Finally! Carrying boxes about was really an arm-straining affair ^.^
