    I believe I read they are at John Muir in Walnut Creek and the Concord campus, Kaiser WC and Kaiser Antioch, Martinez County Hsp, Childrens Oakand for Peds, and I think there is another ???Delta??? not sure the name. I read it somewhere, I think in one of last years threads.

    Love the weather. Hope it is this nice on Saturday!

    Hi all. I was googling to see if anyone was talking about the RN bundle and I found this site. Congrats to everyone on getting in. I have ordered all my books except the bundle online. They were much cheaper. I really want to get the bundle at the bookstore for the PAGEBURST but if its gonna be 700-900 that's ridiculous. I've already priced all of those books for under 400 with shipping.

    Yes I paid about $420 for all the books in the bundle. These bookstores are committing highway robbery for the prices they charge for these textbooks. Last year, I bought a developmental psych book online for $35 and in the bookstore at my school (CSUEB) the same book was over $100....and it was an old edition Yes I refuse to pay $700 to $900 bucks for the same books I can get for hundreds of dollars cheaper.

    My only concern with ordering online is how much are we gonna wish we had the PAGEBURST. I don't know if you saw but included in the bundle is PAGEBURST which allows us to download the books to our computer. Our books will become searchable. This could save us hours of time looking up stuff. Not to mention all of our books will be in one place which means they can easily come with us. I just wish I could talk to someone who has used it and could tell me if I would need it or not. The other thing I am considering is purchasing the electronic from the bookstore and then ordering the books online. Until they have the price at the bookstore I don't know if this will save that much money though.

    I am with you on this one. I really want the PAGEBURST, but if we could buy the electronic version ONLY, I would not mind getting all the others in the bundle elsewhere. They will probably charge a fortune just for the electronic verson! Let me know if you find out anything. I called this morning and they claim the books will be in next week..
