We Can Help You Save Money!

Yesterday when I clicked on my Yahoo! button, the home page had an item that caught my attention. An article told me how I could save $1,000 this year by using seven easy steps. Written by Margarette Burnette and provided by Bankrate.com, the article listed the library as one of those steps. Yep! The library!
On the list of seven items, #4 said: Check out materials from the library. And there were several good suggestions.
For instance, the next time you plan to buy or rent a favorite movie classic, instead borrow the video for free from the library. We even stock DVDs - movie classics and new titles - and CDs with generous borrowing periods. There are also children's videos of cartoons and educational subjects.
Just think, you could save $10 each time you visit the library, which would give you an annual savings of $120 or more per year, depending on how many items you borrow and how often you visit the library.
While you're there, check on the latest book releases. We post best-seller lists for your convenience and may have several copies of many books. By borrowing from the library, you won't have to buy that latest book you'd like to read. From the library, it's free!
And it's good to remember to return everything on time, because libraries charge late fees just like the rental stores do.
So, what does it take for you to save money by borrowing from the library? Just a library card! All you have to do is come to the circulation counter and ask for an application. And if you like to use a computer, be sure to ask for the computer application also. We have 20 nice Dell computers for public use.
We're just one of the seven easy steps that can help you save $1,000 this year!
