Have you been following along with the Affluenza book club discussion posts, itching to get your grubby paws on a copy but didn't want to buy it for yourself because it goes counter to the whole message from the book?Have you been dutifully participating in April's Buy Nothing Challenge and want to read more about how consumerism affects us all?
Did the reader submitted interview with David Wann (one of the authors of Affluenza), make you desperate to read his seminal work before diving into Simple Prosperity?
Are you ready to read more from this life-changing book? Are you ready for me to stop asking so many goddamned questions?
Well, now's your chance to get a copy of the book, guilt-free. Sure, it's a mildly used copy (I'm real gentle on my books), but isn't that better than buying it new?All you need to do to enter the giveaway is add your name to the comments section of this post. The contest ends Friday, May 2nd, at 6:00 pm PST. I'll announce the winner on Saturday! Time's up!

I would love this... they didn't have it at my library OR my used book shop!
Thanks!
I've been meaning to read this for ages, but have been reluctant to buy my own copy for the reasons you mention. I'd love to get in on the draw, though.
haha! When I first read your post, I thought you said "Sure, it's a MILDEWY used copy..." And thought I'd fall over laughing while wondering if you'd dropped in one of those ubiquitous Seattle rain puddles or something, but still decided to pass on. :-D
Then I re-read that line and realized that's not what you meant, AT ALL. Anywho, I'd love to be entered (actually, I'm feeling a little selfish, because I'd kind of love all the books you're parting w/ this week, and just might enter everyday.)
Oh, I'd love to read this book.
Sign me up!
Sure, sign me up.

I would love to read this book. I'd get it at the library, but my tiny municipal library doesn't have a copy of this particular book (in fact, my personal library is more diverse and more up-to-date). I'd buy it, but I kind of made a promise I wouldn't ;). Please add my name to the pool.
I'm in for this one. :]

Me, too!! It sounds like a great read.
Yes, YES to all those questions!!!!

Oh, Pick me .. Pick me! I'd LOVE to read this book and then share it with a million of my neighbors who think they could never do with less, and therefore, think I am crazy to even attempt to Buy Nothing for a whole month!
I'd love to read this.

I just read it (library) so don't enter me, but I just wanted to say that his next book is SO GOOD TOO (library again). Seriously, Crunchy, this is life changing stuff. THanks for passing them on-what a great idea! I have a (like new) copy of Farewell My Subaru, if anyone wants it. If you're thinking of moving to biofuel, this is a great and funny book!
I'd love to read this one!
Trish

De-lurking to say: Yes! (To all of the above questions. with the possible exception of wanting you to stop asking so many questions. ;)
And to say best of luck to you and your husband. Stem-cell transplant stuff sounds like a real crappy ride. Take care of you and him and the little ones.
*Turning lurk mode back ON. Until there are more books in the offer, that is* >_>
Count me in, please... I've been thinking longingly of this one as you've discussed.
yes, yes, yes! I've been waiting to get this from the library but the wait is 8 months long.
I haven't been able to get any good books from my library at all lately. They are either all checked out or they just plain don't have them.
I am excited about these giveaways!
Count me in, looks great!
This book is definitely at the top of my reading list but I'm at the very bottom of the library wait list! Great giveaway!

I tried to purchase this book tonight at Borders but they didn't have it in stock. Then I thought, I should really buy a used book
...and here's your giveaway!!!!
sign me up, please
Me too please! I read it via Interlibrary Loan early in your challenge, but couldn't really play along since it had to be returned in just a few weeks, so I had to plow through it fast and then send it back. If I win the drawing I will donate it to my local library branch so that we have a copy for others to read!
Yes please!
Enter me!
