Are you starting, or returning to college this year? You already know that college can be costly, but there are strategies you can use to cut costs. Let Campus Book Rentals help you save money on college textbooks, by renting them instead of buying them!
Campus Book Rentals, created in 2007, has student customers on more than 5000 campuses nationwide.
They offer:
Let’s use Successful Writing at Work as an example of how much money you can save. You can buy this book at amazon.com for $87.45 or you can rent it for a semester (130 days) for $17.83. (price checked 7/30/12)
Wow – that’s a huge savings – and that’s just on one book! Imagine what you can save on books for a whole course.
One of the many cool things about Campus Book Rentals is they give back. Our readers know we love companies that do their part to make our world a better place. They’ve teamed up with Operation Smile, an organization that performs cleft lip and palate surgeries on children whose parents are unable to afford these costly surgeries.
With every single book rented, a portion goes to Operation Smile and Campus Book Rentals has committed to donating money to cover a minimum of 1,000 surgeries. Kudos to both companies for making a difference!!

Great option…:-)
Awesome plan that creates a win both ways. I love it when folks can do well by doing good! Thanks for sharing!
Great plan my daughter needed her top and bottom jaws repositions she ended up with only the top jaw being repositions by her choice, I had private health cover and therefore the cost to me was minimum, she had her top jaw moved 5 mm the maximum they would do but it needed 8 mm point is I / she was luck she could have it done, This is a great cause for the millions who cannot have it done, good on you for thinking of this.
I wish something had been available like this when I was going to school! Books are expensive and this looks like a great savings.
