Book Clubs
Book clubs are popular in America. These book clubs advertise special offers such as "Any five books on this page for $1.00." These are legitimate bargains, but you must pay a substantial postage and handling charge and also usually agree to purchase a certain number of books from the club within a year or two. The book club will send you a small catalog every few weeks with an order form. If you don't want the book the club has selected for any particular month, you must send back a special form and tell the club "no" or else they will send you the book and bill you for it. This practice makes it convenient to order books, but watch out that you don't accidentally buy something you don't want. Next Section: Stuffed Animals American Culture: Chapter Home
