Cheap Textbooks

Are you taking classes this fall? If so, why not save some money when buying your textbooks!?! Having just ordered some books, let me just share with you two things I did to find cheaper textbooks: 1) Signed up for the 1-year of free "Prime Shipping" by registering as a student with Amazon.com. All they require is your .edu email and you are good to go. Here are a couple of snapshots, one from the sign-up page and one from the checkout page:





2) In addition, I would highly recommend using Addall.com. On this site, you can enter the author / title / isbn, etc. for any book and it will scour the internet and compare prices for you. Right before I checked out with amazon, I actually remembered to do this and ended up saving about $10 by finding the book at a less expensive price elsewhere. Here is a screenshot of Addall:


If you have tips you'd like to share, feel free to leave them in the comments section of this post. Happy book hunting and have a good semester everyone!!!
