31 Things That Are Not Worth the Money

Hardcover Books

“A Game of Thrones” hardcover book: $30.80

Buying books is arguably a waste of money, as you can likely borrow the same books at your local library for free. However, if you insist on buying, it’s better to opt for the paperback or e-reader version, which cost much less.

For example, Amazon sells “A Game of Thrones” for $30.80 for hardcover, $9.99 for paperback and $6.99 for Kindle. At those prices, you can buy two Kindle versions for less than the cost of one hardcover.
