It was the best of times, it was the saddest of times. School time has come around again! We spent our last weekend of freedom crossing off some last minute supplies.
My daughter and I are both bookworms. In fact I think we are the Queen and Princess of bookworm land. We love to read. One of our favorite stores to hangout in together is Barnes & Noble. With a huge selection for both her and I, we can spend hours in there! When I told her I wanted to go pick up a few things from there she couldn't wait to go, especially since I let her know that she could pick out some new books!
She is attending a new school this year and at Open House her teacher told us that daily reading was assigned. At least 20 minutes a day. We both giggled about that, 20 minutes? That's chump change to the likes of us!
This store isn't just a haven for bookworms but an ideal place to get ready for school. From the supplies to the books, whether you homeschool, grade school, or attend college, Barnes & Noble has what you need.
We had a blast browsing through the selections, picking out books for her and the Pirate. Star Wars workbooks? How cool is that?
Then we stopped for a treat at the in-store cafe. What a nice place to sit and enjoy a good book. and a cookie
Whether you fall on the elated, crying your eyes out, or somewhere in between side of things, one thing we can all agree on about back to school season is it can cost a lot! The price just seems to go up every year. Wouldn't it be nice to have a way to earn money back for those purchases?
Barnes & Noble's MasterCard is the best credit card for parents, college students, homeschoolers, teachers, and/or book lovers like me who are purchasing textbooks, books, and supplies not only during back to school season but anytime during the year!

Barnes & Noble is a favorite for my entire family- they really have something for everyone! Its our favorite leg stretching stop on long road trips! I would definitely be sucked in by that water bottle display- I’m addicted to water bottles!
I love shopping about Barnes and Noble for children books. They have a great selection and the prices are very reasonable too.
Oh see I’m not allowed in B&N anymore. Hubby says it’s to dangerous as I have a huge addiction to books. Everytime I go into one I do serious damage to the credit card so I am in time out and can’t go it. But seriously B&N rock you can get s lot of wonderful stuff doe school there.
Those Star Wars workbooks look like soo much fun! My kids would love those. We love to read too and Barnes and Noble is one of our favorite stores.
Barnes & Nobel is one of my top three favorite stores to shop and browse in. I use my educators discount card since we homeschool, which is great for saving money.
I love going to Barnes and nobles. When I go their I spend hours looking at the latest book and more. Thanks for sharing.
I love Barnes & Noble. I’ve been going there since I was a kid with my parents, and my kids have been going with me since they were newborns – there is not a better place for them to remember from birth. I find a lot of good stuff to aid them in their educational journey, too! And make Mama happy as well. The best think in the world is for somebody to give us a B&N gift card, and I sometimes give them one for no reason at all.
