Rent College Textbooks and Save Money

Updated on April 4, 2013

RENTING COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY TEXTBOOKS IS ECONOMICALLY WISE!

When I went to College, the cost of college books was the most expensive part of the schooling.

Back in the 80's each semester could cost several $hundred just in books. I had a difficult time affording this while I was working full time and raising a family.

I went to Wright State University and they had a bookstore where you could buy used books at a discount. Those books, however, were not always available and some of the professors required new editions.

College costs continue to rise. Many students have a very limited budget and to make sure all expenses are covered, they are doing everything they can to cut costs. A new solution in saving large amounts of of money that I did not have is to rent textbooks. Many are opting to rent these days instead of purchasing very expensive new textbooks.

I hope you enjoy this website and please leave some comments at the bottom of the page. Thanks for visiting!
