Books people throw out

My wife works at our local recycling center and a workmate of hers who sold me my Telescope for $56 asked Pam if I would like these three books. I just love the recycling center

The Life Line Book Fests are another source of cheap astro books.
Every day they put out more books. If you can find out who is filling the science section, you can ask if they'll put aside any astronomy books for you.
I've picked up current editions for as little as 50c.
