Default the bookstore was great
man for once i had a great experience at the college bookstore. i went and picked up my 6 new books i needed for my class, went to the checkout line and there was an amazing looking girl working the register. so i take my books up there, she smiles and says hi, and begins to check me out. i make idle conversation while she does it. anyway, she takes my most expensive book ($175) and places it in the bag (without scan) and then finishes checking me out. my $550 worth of books only cost me $313. i love that girl
