We are usually really good about returning the kids library books on time - oops - we went on vacation and completely forgot! We returned to 'late' notice in the mail box addressed to our 3 1/2 year old for two books. Both of these books are nearly 3 weeks overdue at this point. The late fee at our library is 10 cents a day per book ($1 a day per movie!). So the two books are gonna set me back a couple bucks right? WRONG - I am just gonna hold on to them a little bit longer because the San Diego County libraries all have a FEE FORGIVENESS program - bring any books, CDs, DVDs, etc that are overdue back on the last Friday of any month & VIOLA - fine is gone!
So my kids get to enjoy the books they checked out & I don't have to pay a fine - pretty good deal if you ask me.
Enjoy ~
