Campus Book Rentals - Buying textbooks is a thing of the past!

*Disclosure Statement: I was compensated for this post by Campus Book Rentals. I have not personally used this website so your opinions may very from mine.

How many of you have or are planning to return to college? Have you seriously thought about rental your textbooks vs. buying them? For me, there are certain textbooks that are necessary to keep while others tend to just take up unnecessary space!

I was attending school, once upon a time, and for personal reasons I did not complete. Now I'm stuck with the textbooks and have absolutely no need for them. Had I known about Campus Book Rentals, I would have saved a lot of money AND I wouldn't be stuck with these books.

Attending school can become a financial burden so doesn't textbook renting just sound logical?

One of my textbooks, Loosening the Grip, would cost you $59.76 on Amazon but to rent from Campus Book Rentals would only cost you $35.92 for 55 days rental. For me, I Ididn't even need the book for a full 55 days yet I paid a pretty penny for a book I have no use for now. I could have saved over $20 AND I would have returned the book... yep, would've been nice!

Check out some of the awesome benefits you'll receive:

Free shipping both ways
You can actually highlight in the textbooks!
Save up to 80% just from renting
30 day Risk Free Returns

I like the idea of being able to highlight in the textbooks but I'm not too sure that's a good thing. Personally I think it might be a little confusing with everyone else's highlighted information; other than that, I think that option is pretty neat.

Note to self** should I ever plan on attending school again, make sure I check out Campus Book Rentals... as should you!

Campus Books Rentals - Why Pay More When You Can Rent For Less?!

12:23 AM | Posted by Unknown | | Edit Post

Can I see a show of hands as to who would rather rent, instead of buy, textbooks and save up to 90%? Campus Book Rentals has been the student resource since 2007. One thing that I have learned, over the years, is that it doesn't matter what age you are, you can always go back to school and further your education. I've also noticed a lot of stay at home/work from home mom's are going back to school, too. What a great time to check out Campus Book Rentals.

I had a Dr.'s appointment, a couple of weeks ago, and the Physician Assistance had a student in there, with him, and she had to have been in her late 50's; she told me she was doing her internship so she was going to be the one to check me out. I thought, to myself, how stinkin' cool is that! I wonder how much she paid for her text books; probably way more than she should have.

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV-TR (Text Revision)

One thing is for sure, buying text books can be a costly expense that can either be good investment or not. For example, at one time, I was going to school to become a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and I ended up purchasing a lot of books. One book in particular was the DSM-IV-TR (Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition Text Revision)...whew long title! I can't remember how much I paid for this book but Amazon shows it to retail for $142.00 but you can purchase it for $113.60. Had I known about Campus Book Rentals, I would have gone through them and paid $73.70 max AND I would have had the option of returning it! Now I'm stuck with this book and have no use for it. Here's a little breakdown: If you want to keep the book for a semester (130 days), you would pay $73.70, Quarter (85 days) for $67.07 or for the Summer (55 days) for $64.12; sure beats $142.00, doesn't it!
