It was a hectic vacation at Bangalore for around 10 days. But still managed to shop around a bit. Some notes to share:
The Crossword Franchisee of Shoppers Stop LTD. at 2nd floor of the Garuda mall that is situated at the Commissariat road in Bangalore is not a very huge book store but seems to be well frequented and has a good collection of books. I bought from here, a book named You and your star by Cheiro for 70 rupees.
But before I landed up on this particular bookstore, I first went to the Crossword franchisee that is handled up by Books and More enterprises pvt LTD at 32, ACR Towers, Residency Road, Bangalore. It is here, I learned about the shop at Garuda Mall.
I never bought any book from here, and just a glossy paper set (for 150 rupees), a jute envelope (30 rupees) and a jute pouch ( again for my mother @ 25 rupees). So total 205 rupees spent at this wonderful store. You also can contact these people if you like at cwdblr@booksnmoreindia.com or dial them at 80-25582411-15. I never purchased many books because frankly I get better book deals here at Ludhiana. But if you are in Bangalore, you must check the store out. It is open all days from 10.30 Am to 9.00 PM.
Garuda Mall also houses Staples, a store selling office stationary and stuff and which has been made up by the Pantaloon people. Here i found this unique brush to clean your keyboard for 99 bucks. Lets hope, finally I manage to clean up this keyboard. - Tushar Mangl
