Wow, someone else noticed that niche was unfilled and went after it directly, from the sounds of it!

And look, they have a 'house sale kit' with it...
Ha! You have no idea how much this is making me happy. It is so utterly, completely logical, it makes me happy to see it play out in reality just like the theories said it ought.

I didn't even notice the house sale kit. That's double funny since we were just talking about bread scent AND selling houses with scent! Even though it's not cookie smell! They have leather scent too, which is also funny because I HATE leather smell!

Neat! I really like the idea of that site. I'm not into ebooks though. My partner keeps trying to get me into them, but I'm just not! I like my physical books. I usually go to fill a bag book sales to benefit the library. So I usually get around 100 books for around $10. But I went to a library book sale a couple days ago that wasn't fill a bag. I paid $5 for 4 books. I got Marlfox by Brian Jacques. I got a 3 in one book that's Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and Around the World in 80 Days. They're both in really good shape. And I got a hardcover that's The Invisible Man and The Island of Dr. Moreau and another hardcover that's got The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine. Both of the hardcover books are in perfect condition and feel like they have never even been cracked open before.

I like the smell of books too. I wonder if anyone has bottled that scent!

Well, that and usually there's never a point to try and bring enough books to last a whole trip unless you're only going for a single weekend, and even then -it's a lot of weight to carry around.
(Yes, yes. E-books are a thing. They are NOT the same!)
So usually I find it better just to plan on getting books wherever I'm going in the first place. It becomes part of the fun!
