Rick's New Book-ordered; whew!

I look so forward to reading Rick's new, upcoming book release in February!

I just ordered it, an autographed copy, just because.

Now, don't get me wrong, I have unending respect-and best wishes always-for Rick and his work. I ordered the book from Books A Million, one of two choices for autographed copy order placement-the other being Barnes and Noble. I made the wrong assumption that BAM was the little mom & pop shop, and I always attempt to patronize them before a giant like B&N. Well, it turns out they have +/- 250 stores, apparently some as large at 30,000 square feet. When we assume...

All of this to point out that either their online purchase system is a relic from just after the Stone Age, or my MacBook and megagigafraxel internet is letting me down, holy cow what a dinosaur, seemingly. Twenty five minutes I'll never get back, but...I cannot wait to read Rick's book, truly.

Just a heads up to all you nice people.

Thanks for the heads up Dave. I enjoy reading Rick's travel guides and regularly use them for planning my trips.

I thought I was going to get a discount at Books a Million for spinning the wheel, but it didn't show up at the end.

I ordered it at Target, instead, for free shipping and a couple discounts, for $10 but no autograph:(

Thanks for the reminder to get it pre-ordered. I've been telling my husband I would get it for him.
