Thank you Book Cellar…read more Kudos to you for having a used bookstore - to get lost in - that smells like a bookstore, but not overpoweringly so - providing a venue to indulge a guilty pleasure - with books in every genre by many authors - that doesn't have a dozen copies of any one book - with books categorized generally even if in fiction it seems to have the same authors in two different spots - with half-price books - that has a great sci-fi section (yay) - showing large numbers to identify a section on the floor and signs at eye level and overhead - that doesn't have employees that hover - that overwhelms, in a good way, And, last but not least: - to require adding more visits to my calendar agenda.

I came across this bookstore by accident while looking for something else. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to see what a huge inventory of new and used books.

This House of Books

As a first time visitor to Billings Montana, there have been many things that have surprised me in…read morea good way and many things that have shocked me and the worst way possible. Unfortunately ThebHouse of Books & Tea would fall into the latter category. I've actually visited this bookstore three time. The first time I made a purchase, the second two times was to browse I'm hopes of purchasing and the third time was to offer my assistance volunteeringly. On my third visit I was met with hatred and prejudice and worst - judgement. It's so unfortunate given the nature of their business... selling books. I expected to find a group of creative, free thinking, intellectuals. What I discovered was a person full of hate.and emptiness. I wouldn't waste my time unless of course you are the type of individual to support this type of "thinking."

We just went to This House of Books for the first time yesterday. The general manager was…read moreincredibly hospitable and helped me choose a delicious tea. We came for the children's books, and I was pleased to see many selections I'd yet to see elsewhere. The prices are definitely higher than an online purchase, but you vote with your dollar, and this is one business I'm glad to support where I can! The general manager told me it's actually a book co-op, owned by share holders. It was very interesting to learn about! We will be frequenting this location when we are in the market for new books or just a relaxing cup of tea!

Buy the Book

This must be one of the most orderly used bookstores I've ever seen…read more There are no books stacked on the floor or overflowing the shelves or strewn about every available spot. If bookstores with overflowing inventory make you claustrophobic, and some do even for me, then Buy the Book will make it easy to enjoy the hunt for that missing book, favorite author, or hard-to-find gem. It is close to a normal store in that regard. It's still a used bookstore, with books at half price, at least for those mass market paperbacks that I saw. And that makes this a must-visit bookstore where clean lines and ease-of-access is important. Books are in all genres, albeit the groupings aren't as clearly delineated as I'm used to seeing, with a fair number of hardcover books rounding out the stock. As you walk in, and on the top of the shelves in the back are bears -- stuffed bears in multiple colors. During your browsing, you might be greeted by the resident cat, or hear the calling of the parrot (at least I think that's what it was), both of which keep the owner company and give some color and homey-ness to the clean, uncluttered, layout. The front of the store has a few odds and ends, including the cat climbing /scratching posts but it's likely only when you leave that you'll notice them.

I love the atmosphere and selection of literature! Reasonably priced books.read more

Montana Vintage Clothing

Montana Vintage Clothing could be a goldmine, but unfortunately it's run by a passive-aggressive,…read moregrey-haired woman who fat-shames customers under the pretense of "taking your measurements to match you to the right fits." When I found a pair of cute shorts and asked to try them on she said she'd have to "measure me first." I politely declined, assuming it was an optional service, to which she further informed me, it was not. Then things got weird. Because the shorts were cute (and cheap), I begrudgingly let her measure my waist. To which she said "ohh, they're too small," and put them back on the rack (they were actually my size) When I said I'd like to try them anyway, she smugly told me I could purchase them, but I still wasn't allowed to try them on. It was hands down the weirdest, most invasive, and humiliating shopping experience I've had. And it explains why the store is bursting at the seams with clothing. I doubt anyone actually buys anything after being treated like that. If you enjoy unsolicited body commentary and being size-policed over $20 vintage shorts, this place is for you. Otherwise, run. And a tip for the owner: If you want to run a 'by fitting only' boutique, then run a proper by-appointment fitting room where you pull sizes for people instead of wasting their time and humiliating them. Vintage isn't supposed to come with a side of shame.

Sometimes it's a matter of available space and sometimes it's how the space is used. Only a very few I've visited can organize space to make it feel more department store than a thrift shop. GIA is a huge store, for what it is, with nearly everything you'd find in a department store. Clothes, of course, and shoes, sorted by size. Children's clothes and toys, Christmas decorations, books, CDs, vinyl, DVDs, kitchen utensils, lamps, appliances, furniture, and miscellaneous. They've done a good job using items donated to delineate the areas and although there's only one separate room it feels like at least three. The prices are reasonable, and from time-to-time GIA will have a sale of sorts where you can fill your cart for a flat price. All the items I saw were in good condition, worn, but not trashy. Gratitude in Action uses the money from the store for their mission of support for recovery and sober living and giving people in recovery a chance to be independent.

Prices are so incredibly high. Antique store high!! In fact, same type of items would be cheaper…read moreat an antique store. I believe in their cause, but am wondering if the prices were lower, maybe they could sell more, and in the long run make more money. Or are the bosses at the top just making money for themselves with higher salaries? I won't be donating there anymore. And many others in the community have said they won't be either.
