RALEIGH -- Book-lovers in Raleigh have had much to be grateful for over the past year.

Book Planet, a mostly online book distributor in the Oak City, has been hosting near-monthly sales over the past 12 months giving local readers the opportunity to pick up many books at a fraction of their retail values.

The way the sales work is Book Planet organizes shelves and bins in their warehouse, located at 2101 Harrod St, with inventory they've not been able to sell online.

Customers pay a set price (usually $10) for a grocery bag and are allowed to take as many of those books as they're able to fit in the bag.
