How Much Will Textbooks Cost When My Kids Are in College? How to Get Them Cheaper!

I remember not too long ago when I was in college and just how darn expensive the textbooks were to buy. There were a couple I had to get at full price, but for the most part I tried to get used ones. I also did my best to take care of them during the semester so that I could sell them back at the end of term.
I graduated just 8 years ago and the books were not cheap then, I can only imagine how expensive they will be by the time my kids get to college. Hopefully by then they will have mostly online or ebooks (wouldn’t that be nice!)

Campus Book Rentals takes the sting out of book buying. You can find most books that are needed for your college classes at a fraction of the cost just by renting them. After all, most of us don’t want to keep most of those books anyway. One of the classes I took in school was Art Appreciation just because I needed another elective. I had absolutely no desire to be in the class, but I still had to buy a book. I also took a wine appreciation class, after all my degree was in hotel/restaurant management and the book Wine Appreciation for $90!! With Campus Book Rentals you can get it for $50!!

To order is so easy. You simply go to Campus Book Rentals website, search for the books you need by title , author or keyword, head to checkout and choose a shipping option and the book will be delivered right to your door. You will save about 40-90% off of the regular price, there is free shipping both ways, and flexible renting periods.

What makes this even better is that Campus Book Rentals donates a portion of each rental to Operation Smile!  What an honorable and deserving charity.


So after you choose your classes for the next semester, head to Campus Book Rentals to get the books you need at a portion of the cost. Then when you are done, just send them back.

Here is a video to show you more how it works.

I was compensated for this post, but all opinions are my own.
