These books are an easy sale with card purchases. The book captions tie in well with popular card giving occasions. Plenty of suppliers offer books which fit with cards like this including Hallmark, Compendium and Care and Share. We use all three suppliers in our newsagencies and gift shops. The key is to keep moving stock so there are always fresh titles on offer. Price is also important as customers are looking for something which feels valuable but without a high price tag.
There are many ways to approach gifts in newsagencies. Our experience is that starting with existing suppliers is a good first step. Some existing newsagency suppliers have gifts which are not usually offered to newsagents. Ask.

In this case, books that are unsold when refreshing is required are they returned and you receive a credit- as per magazines?
Derek it depends on the supplier. Usually firm sale. mark
I apologise in advance im unaware of how I can ask a question of others on this site, maybe i cannot but ill give it a go as this topic fits. I am interested in the spinners of gift cards seemingly available through newsagencies, post offices and the like, costing, structure etc, they hold large branded companies like sportsgirl, portmans, mitre 10 etc. regards
