College. The word brings me back. It’s not that I had a bad experience, I had a wonderful time there actually. And one of the best things, I met my husband. But…one of the worst…buying college books.
Oy!
They are so darn expensive, and most of which we really don’t need to keep for whatever given career path we choose. Selling them back? What a joke, right?
CampusBookRentals.com is an alternative source for college text books. Not only is it a source, it’s a good place to save money. Here are a few perks:
- save 40-90% off of bookstore prices
- free shipping both ways
- can highlight in the textbooks
- flexible renting periods
I had to check out the prices for myself. I studied photography in college. Their price for The Art of Photography: An Approach to Personal Expression by Bruce Barnbaum is $29.97. This is approximately 33% off when you rent it through CampusBookRentals.com instead of purchasing it yourself. Savings enough for me to share with you!
I thought this was worthy of mentioning too. CampusBookRentals.com has partnered with Operation Smile and have donated over 1,000 life saving cleft lip surgeries this year to children in need.
I currently have no use for this as my little one are years from college, but after researching this site, I thought it was definitely worth sharing with you all. You will have to let me know if you use the site and what deals you score!
