And here is my savings for all the physical books that I took out from my local libraries ❤️ I saved $5,678.25 !!! 😲😲😲😲

That means if I combine the physical loans with the digital and audiobook loans, I had a whopping total savings of $11,199.43 after taxes.

THAT IS FREAKING CRAZY! I am so so blessed to have access to 4 wonderful libraries in my city. Yay!

Well-ReadNeck I LOVE THIS!!! 👏🏽🙌🏻👊🏽 7y
AmyG Amazing. My financial advisor husband would love that you figured this out! He applauds you. 👏🏻 7y
Clwojick @haanim well... I should have. 🙈 But I didn't think that far ahead... so I just spent two afternoons online searching to sale price in Canada for each book/audiobook etc. Then I totalled them all and added Ontario taxes. NEXT year I am calculating them all as I go. Doing it all annually was crazy. Ahahaha❤️I want to add the monthly totals in my #bulletjournal for 2018. 7y
Clwojick @Luv2readbookz @Itchyfeetreader @Well-ReadNeck @AmyG thanks guys ❤️️💙 7y
Pamwurtzler Wow! That‘s some serious cash. I‘m impressed!! (Also I‘m really impressed that you didn‘t lose interest before you finished) 👏👏 7y
haanim @Clwojick that‘s really amazing. Our library system here isn‘t that great. They don‘t tend to get many latest releases, but it‘s fine for getting backlist books. I defs want to make use of my library more in 2018 and DEFS need to spend less money on books. You‘ve given me an idea ☺️ so thanks 😆✌🏽 7y

Notafraidofwords I save some serious money using the Library 90 percent of the time. 7y
Andrew65 Shows your tax dollars at work. 😂Fantastic savings. (edited) 7y
jmtrivera Amazing. 7y
drokka This is a good exercise. I should do this next year. It won't be nearly as much as you because I'm reading as many as I can from my own shelves, but using the library to fill the gaps where previous years I would buy them. 7y
Megara What a great idea to document this! 🙌 7y
Purrfectpages Wow! What a great idea! And what a great plug for local libraries! 7y
night_shift I'm going to have to figure this out for myself. I bet I saved a ton with my library card! 7y

It has been one heck of a year for my #ReadingStats ❤️ Late last week I started calculating the costs for how much money I've saved this year thanks to my library card.

Here is the total for any ebooks or audiobooks that I downloaded with Libby or Hoopla. After taxes I saved $5,521.18 😲😲😲😲

That is insane 😱❤️ #my2017 #2017ReadingStats #TotalSavings
