I spent $12 on a free library app and saved $80 on cookbooks

So I got tired of buying cookbooks at full price just to try one recipe... I noticed my local library in Portland uses the Libby app for ebooks. I borrowed 3 cookbooks in one afternoon for free. Over the last month I saved roughly $80 by testing recipes from the app instead of buying. Has anyone else found a good way to borrow specialized books without spending?

Right? It's such a great feeling when you find that workaround! Libraries really are a goldmine for stuff like that, especially if you're just browsing for ideas. I love that you can check out a whole stack of cookbooks and not feel guilty if only one or two recipes actually call to you. It makes trying new things way less stressful than buying a $30 book for a single dish you might not even like.

Borrowed three cookbooks from my library app last week and saved like 30 bucks easy.
