The Kindle or e-reader is so much handier for me due to arthritis makes it
hard to hold books turn pages etc., and as you say I can change the print to
larger print at the push of a button or two which makes it easier to see.
Seems like we have this conversation about every 3 or 4 months, same with
dishwasher versus dishwashing, how far behind can the cell phone debate be?

Actually, I'm pretty sure the debate over credit cards versus checks or cash
at the checkout is pretty close, or at least the *they bag or you bag* the
groceries discussions are coming soon. ;-)

LOL I was at the grocery store yesterday with my neighbor. Between the
two of us we had a rather loaded cart. At Publix, they always have
someone to bag your groceries. They also take your cart out to your
car. I don't usually need that but yesterday it was appreciated.

Shopping with someone else means twice or thrice the food to load into
the trunk. (You should have seen the size of the cantaloupe she
bought!) Some of the bags had to go in the back seat.

The "bag boy" saw some DVD's she was planning to return to the library
sitting on her back seat. One of them was 'The Witches of Eastwick'.
This guy young guy, maybe 19 years old, laughed and said, "Oh, I know
that movie. Cher ! It's a 1980's movie. I wasn't even born yet."
(laughing) Gee, thanks for pointing that out.

lol Did I tell you about https://www.bookbub.com/ ? I signed up with
them and they send me suggestions for books and the most I have ever
paid is $1.99 ! Cost me more to drive to the library

Yes, I believe it was Cindy who first told me, but I've seen others mention
it since. A great place that I use often. I like the fact that you can set
up what kind of books you want to read and it comes in the email every day.
