and my school is not an option HAHAHAHA ...private school...jacked prices cause they can along with jacked tuition  


so any help?!?!?

thanks ladies!

I always bought used from the campus bookstore after comparing the campus prices to the online prices. Once I added in shipping, they were pretty equal. We have a used bookstore in town where I got my NCLEX prep books for cheap. I've used Amazon, too. I don't miss spending $800 on books each semester! What are you taking?  

I used textbooks.com

Is there a "half priced books" store by u?

try chegg.com you just rent them but it makes it way cheaper and most txtbooks u sell back at the end of the semester anyways

Quoting Ah TAM:" Is there a "half priced books" store by u?"

Love that place.

half.com and amazon.com

Amazon was always at least 1/5 the price the school bookstore wanted to price books at... sometimes it was from amazon itself or an independent seller.

Sometimes if you get the same book but the precious edition you can get it for cheaper too. I've done that before. There wasn't really that much difference and they were soooo much cheaper
