Okay! Quick hack: I almost always buy my books at target because of this!! You can see if they have it in store - and whatever they have it priced for, you can always price check on the Target app by scanning the barcode and then you can see the online price which is WAYY cheaper. It’s the MSRP(manufacturer suggested retail price). I’ve gotten books FOR WAY cheap and I always walk out with a deal. Like some of them are literally 10 bucks less than what the sales price is.

Unfortunately I noticed target has a similar issue! at least my target… so happy it works for you!

I got my secret Santa a politics memoir book and it was $27.99 for maybe 200 pages. It was a 30% off at target sale, which was great, but still shocked an average sized book can cost that much
