It'd been well over a decade, perhaps closer to two, since I last stepped foot inside a…read moreBooks-A-Million. I didn't know these stores still existed, but I hadn't thought about it either. The one in my hometown (High Point, North Carolina) closed a long time ago. I remember enjoying my visits there as a kid. This Books-A-Million in Statesboro appears to be alive and well, for the most part. When Three Tree Coffee Roasters closed early, we headed here. There's a cafe inside called Joe Muggs (the Books-A-Million cafe chain). Joe Muggs has indoor and outdoor covered seating and the bookstore has free Wi-Fi. In order to connect to Books-A-Million's Wi-Fi network, you have to log in using a social media account. I logged in using my Twitter account. This is the first public network I've connected to that required a social media account for connection purposes. They must want my data. The Wi-Fi signal at the cafe was good and the speed was sufficient for general web browsing and music streaming. I didn't try to stream any videos, but I did upload some photos and those took a lot longer over Books-A-Million's Wi-Fi than my considerably faster home internet connection. We stayed at the cafe for a few hours in the afternoon. The store saw a steady, but slow, stream of business. A lot of the employees just hung out behind the registers due to a lack of customers. There were a couple books we were interested in getting for my nieces, but sadly, Amazon had them at lower prices with free (Prime) shipping. It's this very reason why I wonder how brick and mortar bookstores like Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million have survived for as long as they have. Then again, they seemed to thrive in the 90s with business models that allowed customers to spend hours inside their stores reading books and magazines and not having to pay a dime. Wanting to give Books-A-Million our business, we asked the staff if they would price match Amazon. They said they couldn't price match in-store, but we could price match with Books-A-Million online. Why would we spend our time doing that (setting up a Books-A-Million account online and going through the price matching process) when we already had Prime accounts set up through Amazon? With just a few taps on the Amazon app, we'd have the books sitting on our doorstep in a couple days. The store itself was nice. It was well maintained and organized and had an up-to-date and well-stocked inventory of books, toys, games, and gifts. The men's restroom was clean. The staff was polite. While it has some things working against it, overall, I think this Books-A-Million is a fine place to come to to browse, shop, meet, hang out, and/or get some work done. Both the bookstore and cafe have a quiet, relaxed, and comfortable atmosphere. This Books-A-Million is located in the Statesboro Crossing shopping center with other national retail and restaurant chains like Hobby Lobby, Olive Garden, Petco, TJ Maxx, and Ulta Beauty. It's not far from Statesboro Mall and the Walmart Supercenter.

Being in an area where there are at LEAST 5 different pawn/cash loan/ jewelry/Gun/Electronic shops…read morein a 20 mile radius i recommend going to ANY other one other than Mr. Cash. Terrible service (workers wont even acknowledge you until you stand in front of them for 5 minutes staring at them until they say,"What do you need?") And TERRIBLE experience! 1st time ever having to do a pawn/small cash loan ( and I hope sincerely that you never have to either) because my daughters Disney World school trip fees were due and I wouldn't have been able to cover the cost before my paycheck came in. The pawn terms are very predatory. When I was given the loan I was under the impression, and explained to in a matter where there is a interest fee, and the principle amount. Once the interest is paid, then any payments made after were to be applied towards the principle as long as a minimum payment is made (or so I thought!). In my case, the interest fee and minimum amount was to be $50 while the loan/principle was $200. I made 5 payments of $50 and wasnt told until I asked how much i still owed, that I still owed $250! After already paying $250 for a $200 loan and learning that NONE of my payments were counted towards the principle and that I still owed $250 to get my things back was heart dropping. Ive never been so disgusted with greed (other than pharmaceutical) than i was dealing with Mr. Cash. Yes, it was, in the end my fault. But, to hope for just basic decency shouldn't be too much to ask. After seeing me make multiple payments and KNOWING that NONE of them are counting you would HOPE that SOMEONE would say, "Hey, ive seen that you've made multiple payments and I dont know if you know but, if you make (such and such amount) payment it will count towards your principle. As of now its not". If I would not have asked, they would have allowed me to just keep on paying until I was at 100x the original worth. Go anywhere else. Literally next door is another pawn shop and they are friendly, explaining, and have better fee rates.
