2. A treasure that needs effort to obtain is visiting discount stores that sell books upto AUD 5. Ive got a few books from
Go-Lo
K-mart
Target
Always go to the books section and see whats on discount. I got an autobiography title I was looking for a long time after reading the blurb in Borders and then I happened to see the same book sold for AUD 2.50 (in comparison to AUD 35 in Borders).

NB:
I miss Gangarams in B'lore.
