Textbooks!! Textbooks are highly expensive by the end of my 2nd year I found out accidently from another student who was using a prior edition that there was virtually no difference other than color or rearranging some sentences. Instead of paying $100 to $200 for a book I was now paying anywhere from $1.00 to $12.00 a book. Try these places for discounted textbooks:

eBooks is an online Textbook seller and rental dealer. They buy book also take a look at their rock bottom prices starting at $3.00

Amazon sells more the novels and music but textbooks too and they buy back old textbook too. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve brought a book and sold it back for more than I paid for it.

            FastWeb is an online portal for applying for legitimate college scholarships. Once you get in college everything may seem fine but realistically you could use a whole lot more. Take advantage of the free money offered through grants, scholarships, internships and more.

Just because you’re in college doesn’t mean that you have to do without but with careful shopping and budgeting you can save money on the things you must have and have money left over for the indulgences.
