Probably the greatest thing in the world... at BYU

I think it would be impossible to not love a resource as useful as the BYU bookstore. You just cannot beat the convenience of only having to go to one place to get everything you need for college. Getting books there is a breeze. Everything is well-categorized, and if by some chance the Bookstore does not have what you need on the shelf, they can order it for you. That, to me, shows that they are really looking out for the students. It's not a "tough luck" situation, they've got your back the whole way.
Adding on to the incredible ease of buying at the Bookstore is the checkout. Everyone there is friendly, and even when the line is long, the cashiers work hard to make sure you get through as quickly as possible. They are also very willing to help with any issues you may have, and they thoroughly explain their wonderful buy-back policy and return policy, just so there isn't any confusion.
Finally, the Bookstore's prices are completely reasonable as well. After all, they are a business, and besides the price that the publisher charges the store there are lots of overhead costs and employee wages to pay, so books are going to be expensive. When you put it all into perspective, the prices of books at the bookstore make sense.
The Bookstore is a wonderful place for buying books, and so much more, at the right price, and with all the convenience and support one could ask for.

See you next time
