Big Bad Wolf howls last call

Thousands have joined the hunt at the Big Bad Wolf book sale since its opening last July 13 at the IEC Convention Center. Bibliophiles have until 11:59 p.m. today to grab their favorite books at 60 to 80 percent off their regular prices.

Readers can expect to find bestsellers, novels, self-help and business guides, art and design titles, cookbooks, a fantastic range of children’s books ranging from activity books, story books, and interactive books, and much more. Big Bad Wolf Cebu also boasts a special “Tingbits” (from tingbitay which, in Cebuano, refers to non-payday periods) section which has even bigger discounts.

There are a total of 28 cashiers to serve shoppers to make sure checking out is fast and easy.

Big Bad Wolf believes that English literacy is important, something that should be made available to all. And through the event’s Red Readerhood Programme, one can be a part of this wonderful advocacy: just buy any children’s book from the Red Readerhood Corner, located after cashier and before check-out, and drop it into the designated collection box. All books received at the Red Readerhood corner will be donated to Gawad Kalinga community libraries in Budlaan, Dumanjug, Bantayan and Ticad.

Shoppers are advised to shop responsibly by returning unwanted books, and are encouraged to bring their own reusable bags.
