Book Spree @ Kinokuniya

Duck revealed that Kino is going to have 20% discount for members and I'm going to whip out the remaining $160 book voucher and have a spree at Kino this coming week.

A whole morning spent shopping virtually on the Kino online database helped me shortlist a reading list for the coming year.

The finalists, selected for price and for interest are:

1) Small is Beautiful, EF Schumacher - $37.31
2) Last Chance to See, Douglas Adams & Mark C. - $24.94
3) Gaia: New Look at life on earth, James Lovelock - $25.20
4) Walden, Thoreau - $9.26 or $20.46*
5) Song of the dodo, David Quammen - $39.62
6) Our Ecological Footprint, Mathis Wackernagel - $27.85
7) Save our Planet: 750 everyday ways - $28.02
Total: $192.20
After discount: $153.76

*If I buy the cheaper book and then add in any of these books:
1) How to shit in the woods - $16.75
2) Who will feed China - $16.48
3) The urban naturalist - $16.72
Total estimated after discount: $167
Amount spent: $7

OR I could just buy the more expensive version of Walden and other writings.
Total estimated after discount: $162
Amount spent: $2

So which should I choose?!
