hey guys! I know that textbooks and books are expensive. It’s gross and not fun, but a lot of the times, it’s very important to get the book for a class. The #1 tip i have would be to buy books second hand if you can. Here are some ways to hopefully make it a little bit cheaper!!

Thriftbooks: This website is so important to me?? I’m not even kidding. I bought all but two of my textbooks from here this year. The best part is that books start at $3.59. $3.59!! $3.59.  Shipping is free after you spend $10!!! If you’re also looking to read more, they have tons of popular books. Please do yourself a favor and check this site out!!

Cheapesttextbooks: Pretty self explanatory. What you do is put in the either the ISBN, author, or book title (I’d recommend ISBN!! It’s the best way to make sure you get the right addition)  and then the site will compare all the different prices from tons of different sites. 

Textbooks: This site is pretty similar, but you can sort the options by new, used, if you’re looking to rent, or even as an Ebook! The site is also a comparison site, but it compares individual sellers.  

Amazontextbooks: Bet you didn’t know Amazon also does secondhand books, and has a whole section dedicated to textbooks. They can help you get up to 90% off textbooks from individual sellers. 

Chegg: Not only is this site is great for buying and renting textbooks, it also has tons and tons of other features. It has section on colleges, scholarships, internships, career ideas and tutoring. The best part? You can also sell your textbooks to them at the end of the semester, even if you didn’t buy them from Chegg. 

Good luck guys!! Go get those textbooks for cheaper!!
