Each time we've walked down the aisle of a Landmark bookstore, we've secretly hated those guys. They tempt us with some of the best titles, which, given our paltry paycheques, we can only afford to take one of home. If you can empathise with us, we suggest you take advantage of the annual Landmark sale that kicks off today. Get up to 50% off on books, music, CDs, movies, toys and gifts. If you are a sucker for bestsellers, pick up Chetan Bhagat titles for Rs 50 each (as opposed to the MRP of Rs 95), Eclipse from the Twilight saga for Rs 250 and Rujuta Diwekar's Don't Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight for Rs 99. Get 20% to 50% off on select music titles, and 50% off on select Disney toys. With over one lakh book titles and another lakh music and movie titles, you can stock up on some super merchandise. Go on, knock yourself out.
