Where can I go to get cheap books? Even at the used stores I know they're like 5+ for a paperback in fair at best condition. People say like swap meets or library sales but how do I even find out about those?

You have to find a place that sells used books without specializing in them. I go to a video game resale store that sells them for some reason, and the average I pay is two dollars a piece

Flea markets. I found a really nice Franklin Library hardcover of Candide at one, once.
