Our search has the following Google-type functionality:
If you use '+' at the start of a word, that word will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry +Potter
Search results will contain 'Potter'.
If you use '-' at the start of a word, that word will be absent in the search results.
eg. Harry -Potter
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
If you use 'AND' between 2 words, then both those words will be present in the search results.
eg. Harry AND Potter
Search results will contain both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
If you use 'OR' between 2 words, then either or both of those words will be present in the search results.
eg. 'Harry OR Potter'
Search results will contain just 'Harry', or just 'Potter', or both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
If you use 'NOT' before a word, that word will be absent in the search results. (This is the same as using the minus symbol).
eg. 'Harry NOT Potter'
Search results will not contain 'Potter'.
If you use double quotation marks around words, those words will be present in that order.
eg. "Harry Potter"
Search results will contain 'Harry Potter', but not 'Potter Harry'.
If you use '*' in a word, it performs a wildcard search, as it signifies any number of characters. (Searches cannot start with a wildcard).
eg. 'Pot*er'
Search results will contain words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er', such as 'Potter'.
Grab a book for Dad this Father’s Day
Yikes! The first Sunday in September is only 10 days away – an early arrival this year on Sunday 2 September.
Luckily Abbey’s always has a mountain of books from which to choose the perfect gift for your dear beloved Dad.
And what better way to make him feel loved than to give him a great book that he can really sink his teeth into? OK, so chocolate always hits the spot too, but chocolate is here now and gone within minutes – and sometimes not even eaten by him! – whereas a book brings lasting enjoyment and its flavour can linger for a lifetime.
Oh come to think of it, why not buy him a book and some chocolate, then he’ll have the best of both worlds. Ahh, it’s nice to be loved!
Check out all our latest releases here. Or if you’re in a hurry, cast your eye over the new titles below. If you’re still unsure, give us a call on (02) 9264 3111 and we'll do our best to steer you in the right direction. If you still can’t make up your mind, or you think he’d rather choose for himself, then our nicely presented Gift Cards or Online Gift Vouchers are a great idea too.
Whatever you decide, have a great day with your Dad and enjoy making him feel special.
