Big Bad Wolf book sale howls online again this May

The fifth Big Bad Wolf book sale and its second virtual return to Sri Lanka is scheduled to go live from May 5 to 12, the organisers said in a media statement.

“The decision to stick with a virtual sale format for two consecutive years is primarily to safeguard the wolf pack, so that they can enjoy the sale from the comfort and safety of their own homes, as well as the fact that international travel and restrictions have not returned to pre-COVID levels. As last year’s online sale hinted, the fans are more than happy to meet the Wolf online,” the statement said.

The organisers said this year’s online sale would see improvements in all aspects, thanks to last year’s first-ever online sale that helped to figure out the necessary changes and improvements that need to be made.

This online sale is expected to showcase a selection of over 50,000 new English book titles, ranging from fiction, bestsellers, literature, non-fiction, business, cookbooks, art and design as well as coffee table books all on offer, with massive savings of up to 90 percent off the recommended retail prices.

The online sale will be further developed to serve the 24-hour online shopping experience with an even smoother home delivery service.

In addition, the Wolf has partnered with Sampath Bank as the official banking partner for the sale, in order to provide the fans with a safe and secure method to complete payments.
