college days & textbooks

In case you didn't know I enjoyed school.  I love to learn and gather information.
On days when I dream big I want to go back to get a Masters.  Then there are days when I remember how full my plate is, how lovely my life is, and the size of my bank account.

Speaking of bank account, that was one of the downsides of college.
So much money is spent on an education.  So much on information and BOOKS.
Sure, when you buy books from a book store you can sell them and get a few dollars. Percentage wise it always seemed as if you were getting robbed.

If you know me, you know I like saving $$$$$.

So, I wanted to tell you about a company called Campus Book Rentals.

This company allows students to RENT text books!   You can save 40-90% off of normal book prices by renting books that you aren't planning to keep anyway.  

There are ZERO shipping costs 

You are allowed to highlight and use the book like its your own

Here is a video to see how it works! 



Be sure to go to the Campus Book Rental website to find out even more info! 

OR maybe you are looking to get rid of a few text books??

You can use the program RentBack to rent the textbooks you already own to other students and earn
2-4x MORE MONEY than you would with the traditional buy back options.

If/ When I do go back to school I know I will be utilizing this awesome opportunity.

                     I was compensated for this post, but the thoughts and opinions are my own. All information is directly from Campus Book Rentals

  3. That's such a great concept. I have some many leftover college text books that I spent a small fortune on. Renting them would have been a much better idea. I am a new follower from the Super Sunday Sync Blog Hop. I look forward to reading your posts.
