A while back, I expressed that I was going to start college to get my bachelor degree in marketing and advertising. I actually will be attending this Fall semester or the 2015 Spring semester. Besides studying for the entrance exam, I also took a peek at what textbooks I would need. I looked on Amazon for prices, and was pretty astonished at the prices! One seller wanted almost $100 for just a marketing book. Even the school's book store wanted a hefty price for that one book. Considering I would probably only need that book for one year, I couldn't see myself spending $100 on a book I would no longer need after a while.
That is when I came across CampusBookRentals. It is a new way to rent your textbooks for 40%-90% OFF bookstore prices! All you do is search for your textbooks by ISBN, author, title, or even keyword. You can pick your rental term or even choose your own return date, and rent it. Better yet, you get FREE shipping both ways! You can even highlight in your textbook as if you owned it.

Done with your bought textbook but don't want it just laying around forever? Thanks to CampusBookRental's new RentBack program, you can actually rent your textbook to other students and earn money each time. You could earn 2-4x more than you would selling your textbook to the school store!
CampusBookRentals even saves lives by donating to Operation Smile with each textbook rented. Operation Smile is an international children's medical charity that heals children's smiles by providing safe, effective reconstructive surgery and related medical care for children born with facial deformities such as cleft lip and cleft palate. So while you are saving money renting textbooks, you are also saving lives!
So when you or your children head to college, rent your textbooks from CampusBookRentals. You can save money and save lives!
I wish i would've known about this when I was back in school! would've saved me a ton of money! Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! I'm not in school, but I will share with my facebook friends, I have a few of them in school, this could be useful.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that you're going to college. I would have pursued a master's degree myself, but my hands are already way too full with mommy duties. :)
