Renting Vs. Buying: College Textbooks

DISCLOSURE: This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Campus Book Rentals. All opinions are my own.
As a full-time college student, living in a one income home, that includes a teenage daughter - budgeting is crucial to keeping our living costs down.
Each semester I take on at least 15-18 credits with textbook costs easily totaling $1000 or more. I don't mind incurring these costs because they're books I'll refer to in my future career. However, if I can save a few dollars by renting books I won't need later on, I will. That's where Campus Book Rentals comes in.
#17 on the Inc. 500 list, CBR has become the source for renting vs. buying, on over 5,000 college campuses. They offer flexible renting periods, free shipping, no hidden fees and employ a 21-day risk-free return policy with live customer support Mon-Fri 8-6PM MST. See how it works.
   CBR is a generous organization that takes education seriously and gives back to its student community. They've set aside $90,000 in textbook scholarships for deserving students and a portion of every textbook rental is donated to Operation Smile. Operation Smile performs cleft lip surgeries on children who cannot otherwise afford such a procedure. Our daughter is involved in numerous service organizations in our community and I'm excited to share the youth and volunteer programs Operation Smile has to offer.
Not only will you save a great deal on your school books at CBR, (at least 40-90% off bookstore prices), you can also take advantage of their new RentBack program, where you get paid to rent out textbooks you own to other students, not only saving you money but, making you money.
So before you head back to school this fall, be sure to stop in at Campus Book Rentals and save some money on those books. Here's a coupon to get you started: $8 off an order totaling $70 or more using coupon code FallSale70.
