Paper Back Swap is this really cool online book club that allows you to swap books with members all over the U.S. You post books that you don't want, and if another member request it you mail it to them. In return once they mark the book as received, you will get a "book credit" which you can use towards any book on the site that is currently available and the member who posted the book you'd like pays for your shipping so basically a free book only "costs" you mailing a book to another member. Yes, you have to pay the postage out of pocket, but the more books that you mail, the more credits you get, and the more credits that you get, the more books you can get for FREE at the expense of your fellow book nerds. Every time you mail one book, you get one credit. It takes one credit to order one free book for yourself, and they really have a great selection to chose from. Just type in the title you are looking for, and chances are at least one copy will be available for mailing. And if it's not, you can put it on your wish list and they will send you an e-mail when one becomes available. They even give you two free credits when you post your first ten books when you first sign up.You know what they say, one man's trash is another mans treasure.
