School has started here in Kansas City for students of all ages, including college. If you have ever attended college, or know someone that has, then you know the costs of everything are anything but frugal!
When it comes to paying for college, you have to pay for everything including: meals, school supplies, living expenses, and books. Books have to be one of the worst things you can invest in as a student, unless you know you can make your money back. This is why I would highly suggest looking into renting your books.
A company called Campus Book Rentals specializes in textbook rentals. According to their site, when you rent (rather than buy) you can save up to 90%! That is amazing!
Who are Campus Book Rentals?
CampusBookRentals.com began renting textbooks in August of 2007. Since then, we’ve served thousands and thousands of customers on more than 5,000 different college campuses in the fabulous USA. You can be confident in our customer service and reliability. We work like maniacs to get books to our customers on time, make things right when something goes wrong, and provide fast and responsive customer service.
At CampusBookRentals.com we offer virtually any textbook for rent, we pay students for referring friends, we award scholarships every semester, and we contribute a portion of the rental proceeds to a worthy humanitarian project each year. We’ll keep you involved in our humanitarian projects and progress through our “Making a Difference” link.
Renting textbooks makes sense plain and simple. Every rental comes with a worry free guarantee within the first 30 days of your order if you drop your class or change your mind, you keep more cash in your pocket up front, you can order from the comfort of your home or office, it doesn’t cost a penny to return your rented textbooks when you’re done with them (we even provide the package), and you don’t have to worry about disappointing buyback prices at the end of the semester. Let us take the risk that your textbook will be worthless next semester; you don’t have to anymore.
Why choose Campus Book Rentals?
3. You’ll save money. Pay less than half price to rent textbooks, and if you decide you want to keep the book instead of renting it, just pay us the difference and the book is yours. It’s really risk free.
4. We have a 30 day risk free guarantee. Return your book for any reason within 30 days for a full refund.
5. There’s tons of perks. Monthly giveaways, textbook scholarships, shirts, and other prizes. Registration is free and you do not have to be a paying customer to win.
My Review
Oh, how I wish I this site would have been around during my college years! I cannot tell you how much money I “threw away” by purchasing books for only 1 semester. Then I would be stuck with a book I no longer needed, and spent way too much money on!
If you know any students, no matter what they are studying…you should definitely tell them about Campus Book Rentals! They will absolutely love you for helping them save money! As a former college student myself, I can’t tell you how many times crackers and ram-en noodles were my dinner options! Please take the time to share this with anyone and everyone you know!
