Back to school:: Campus Book Rentals

Since back-to-school time is just around the corner (I know, WHERE HAS TIME GONE!) I have again teamed up with CampusBookRentals.com to help promote them and their AWESOME savings.

 

 

 

 Back when I went to college, there were some semesters that my book bill was more than the tuition (thank you, scholarships :)) And now that I work for a community college, believe me, my jaw still drops when I see the cost of some of these books. Thankfully we rent out most of our books, but geez, I would hate to be shelling out the cost of most of those books!

 

That's why I think places like CampusBookRentals.com and their program http://www.rentback.com/, are amazing! The Rent Back program is for everyone - if you own textbooks, you can rent them to other students, and typically make at least 2 times the money that you would make selling it back to the College Bookstore at the end of the semester.

 

Some perks are:

- save 40-90% off of bookstore prices

- free shipping both ways

- students can highlight in the textbooks

- flexible renting periods

- they've had over 1 million customers and books on more than 5,800 campuses!

This is a pretty good video to explain just how CampusBookRentals.com works

Something else I really love is that they donate to Operation Smile for every textbook rented. Operation Smile is an international children's medical charity that performs safe, effective cleft lip and cleft palate surgery, and delivers postoperative and ongoing medical therapies to children in low and middle income countries. I think this is such a worthwhile cause! Find more on that HERE.   

 

 

Y'all know I'm all about saving money, so I hope this helps some of you!
