I buy mine from Martingales in pdf form as I live in Finland so I save the shipping fee . They have all books in print as well, free shipping on over 40$ purchase. Every week they have a Sale, Weekly WOW!, some books for 40% of their regular price. In fact I just ckecked their link and I'm going to order one on patchwork jackets for under 8$!

Like several others here, I like Amazon and Connecting THreads. I often buy them at Joann's with 40 or 50% off coupons.

I do the same thing. Amazon has good prices and free shipping. Checking books out at the library is a smart thing to do, as I have bought too many books and been then been disappointed.

I got stung once with a used book from amazon. It had pages falling out and when I let the seller know about it, they did nothing. I DO buy new books from Amazon. They have the best prices and free shipping.
