Want to save on your schoolbooks?


If you are continuing your education then you know that the textbooks you need can be PRICEY.  Even if you buy them used they are still very expensive.  Well sure you can always trade them in for money back when you are done but how much money back do you really get?  Not much especially if you have marked in them to highlight, there are torn pages, or just normal wear and tear.  This is one of the major issues I had when I was back in college (I graduated in April '12).

No more!!  Now there is a way to get the book you need for less.
  Renting your books is a great way to save money and this is a wonderful thing when you are a student.  I found CampusBookRentals and wish I would have known about it sooner.  That is okay though because I plan to re-enroll into the higher learning rush again in January so this site will definitely come in handy!


CampusBookRentals  offers their books for much less than you can buy them new; you will save 40%-90% off bookstore prices!  That's a lot of savings.  But the savings don't stop there...you even get free shipping and return shipping.  Amazing, I know.

Here is an example of the savings you will get:
This example is based on Psychology, 9th Edition by, David G. Meyers.
Amazon Price: $130.40 PLUS $3.99 shipping
vs.
CampusBookRentals Price: $31.79 and NO SHIPPING

Impressive, right?!  That is a savings of more than 76%!  Who wouldn't want savings like that!

Right now you may be thinking that with a rental you will have to baby the book and wont be able to highlight in the books as you normally would.  Not true!  You will use the rented books just as you would use a book you bought from the bookstore.  It is important to CampusBookRentals to cater to your learning as well as save you money.  They even offer 30-day risk-free returns so if there is something wrong with the book or you drop the class you have hassle-free returns.  Who needs return hassles, especially when college adds enough stress to our lives?


You can even offer your textbooks that you have purchase for rent and make money each time your book is rented to another student!!  That is much better than trading in that old book.  That means you will get paid back for your book more than once!

CampusBookRentals is endorsed by The New York Times, Business Week, CNBC, Yahoo Finance, Wall Street Journal, and many others!

I think one of my favorite parts about CampusBookRentals is they change lives as well as help save money.  They Partner with Operation Smile to change the lives of many children in need.  I love that they give a portion of proceeds to a cause. 

They also have a new program called RentBack.  RentBack is new initiative that allows students to rent the textbooks they own - to other students... which is awesome because it makes them 2-4x more money compared to what they'd make through buyback options! (selling their books back at the end of the semester) Isn't that awesome?!

So I don't know if you have made it this far or if you went straight to CampsBookRentals to rent your next book.  But if you did read this far, make sure you rent your books.  You will not only help yourself but help support a cause as well.
