Lowell Library Bag Book Sale: Fill a Bag for $3

The Lowell Public Library's $3 Bag Book Sale returns Saturday, Nov 28, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., a bargain-hunter's favorite the day after Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving weekend in Lowell starts with a deal for readers: the Public Library's $3 Bag Book Sale runs Saturday, Nov 28, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Fill a bag with books of every genre for a flat $3, a tradition that turns a post-holiday morning into a treasure hunt. It is a quiet, easy stop for the whole family, and the same weekend marks the opening of Harvest Tyme's Christmas Tyme Lights just outside town for an evening of glow. Start at the library, then make an evening of it on the light trail.
