I keep list here on GR for where I've purchased a book from. Looking this morning I see I've gotten 529 books from Goodwill, by far my highest count. Does anyone else track the stores they shop at?

I don't keep track of the number of books I buy from different locations, but I do keep track of how much I spend at each place.
Sort of...I have a horrible memory for important things but if you pick out just about any book from my library I can probably tell you where I got it. I would imagine that I've gotten most of my books from Half Price Books and/or garage sales.
Only when I order a dead tree book from the internet (just in case I order something and it never arrives). I keep track of them in a folder under favourites in my internet explorer and then delete it when the book arrives in the post. I also have a list of the ebook websites in my favourites but I don't keep track of those because they're on your kindle/computer the second you buy them.
Yes, I keep track of the books I purchase on GR and this book collector program I have called Collectorz.com. Every time that I get a book from the library's "For Sale" table, Amazon.com and book fairs, I enter them into both programs right away so I don't forget.
I've been using Collectorz too. Hubby and I decided it was time to take a tally of what and where it all is. It's time consuming but well, call me a book geek, fun.I also just started this year keeping a record of my personal reading history here on GR. Again, fun.
