I have been thinking about going back to school to take some refresher courses. I went to a couple colleges when I graduated, but my adventures in the online world, the technology is always changing. One thing that is always expensive is textbooks! Did you know there is a such thing as textbook rentals?
There are classes that I want to take to learn things that will benefit not only me, but my business too. For me I love books, so I would only think about renting textbooks for books I really don’t care to keep. Since I have have completed a TON of college courses, I have a ton of books lying around that I will never use. Those books that I haven’t touch since I finished the class are the type of books that I would rather rent in the future.
For those looking to go to college but worried about all the costs of buying books, you might be interested in this type of service. Just think of how much you could save if you didn’t have to buy all those expensive books required for the classes that you want to take. Instead of buying, you can rent textbooks and return them once you are finished without worrying about having to see the book again.
Have you ever rented a book besides from your library?
What a fantastic idea!
Where was this when I was in school? I definitely could have saved a ton of cash.
That’s a great program!
I wish this was an option for when I was in school!!
Sounds like the way to do it!
My kids tried to do this in college, but none of the books they needed were available for rent. Darn it!
I wish I had this kind of program when I was in college. It was so expensive to buy all my books!
My niece rents her books. It saves her a lot of money.
Great idea! I think we will be checking renting textbooks out since I have eight kids to put through school. 😉
I wish this had been an option when I went to college.
I’m in grad school and will be for at least another 18 months. I really need to look into this! Thanks for sharing.
