Times are tough right now but what if we told you that on September 26th you can fill a bag with books for just £10!

We'll have a selection of books ready for you at 9am. All you have to do is find your favourite tote and put £10 aside ready to bag some books!

All we ask is that you don't bring a massive bag and that you are kind to fellow rummagers!

**we don't have an infinite number of books to let you have at this price so once they're gone they're gone.**

You probably know that Gruffalo Granny is out on September 10th, quite a few of you have pre-ordered already!

The magnificent people at Macmillan have decided that for every copy that we sell between Sept 10th and Oct 10th they will donate a copy of It's the Gruffalo! Finger puppet book to our chosen charity.
