All About Campus Book Rentals - Your Textbook Alternative
Do I have any readers who are attending college right now? If not you, maybe your kids, cousins, niece or nephew...the list goes on! I have some great info that every college student should know about.
I know from experience that buying textbooks for college is very expensive. I actually learned the hard way. I went to the campus bookstore my first semester and bought all of my books there. I spent over $900! Yup, big mistake. I learned very quickly from other students that you can rent the books for a fraction of the price! Then you also have the advantage of not having a stack of useless textbooks hanging around after college (like I do.)
Here's an example for you. Professional Cooking, 6th Edition by Wayne Gisslen is one of the textbooks I made the mistake of buying my first semester.
I believe I paid about $180 for it at the time. If you choose to rent it from campusbookrentals.com, you pay $84 for the semester! That's almost $100 in savings. There are other options too, you can rent for a quarter, a summer, or pick your own return date.
If you choose to rent textbooks from campusbookrentals.com, here are just some of the perks:
- save 40-90% off of bookstore prices
- free shipping both ways
- can highlight in the textbooks
- flexible renting periods
- they donate to Operation Smile with each textbook rented
