If there is one thing college students can all agree on, it’s
that college textbooks are beyond overpriced. No one enjoys emptying their
wallet at The Alamo II or Barnes & Noble for a book they might open up 5 times throughout
the semester.
Luckily, there are a few alternative ways to find books much cheaper.
You can order books for much cheaper at Chegg where you can easily buy, sell, rent, and return your books.
Amazon also has new and used books to rent, buy, or sell, along with providing any student with an ".edu" email address 6 free months of Amazon Prime. With Amazon Prime you have free 2 day shipping on any products endorsed by Amazon.
A newer company, Packback, offers one day e-textbook rentals, semester e-textbook rentals, and price comparisons. All of these digital options allow students to rent whatever book they may need at their own discretion.
Before purchasing a textbook from a store on campus, make sure to check these other options so you can get the best bang for your buck!
