Where do you get your books?!

[JayCimone]

Hey guys Spring semester is coming up for me this January (Jan 13) and I'm trying to get my books...but I want to get them as cheap as possible.

My Classes:

Microbiology+Lab

Lifespan Development Psych

Academic Writing

Computer Science (basic - easy A lol )

Food & Nutrition

Total creds: 16

Does anyone know of a place to get books really cheap? I plan on renting but even in that I want it cheap. I need my books for 120 days.

I'm willing to buy them as well...I just want to buy cheap because we barley used the books. I may now since I no longer take boring entry college requirement courses.

I used Amazon first semester and I still ended up paying like $455 and I only had 10 credits! Lol

Please comment!!

Thx,

Jay

A great source is Half.com i believe it is a sister store to Amazon but way cheaper!

Email professors first. My nutrition professor didn't even use the damn book. Waste of money.

Yes, one more thing. Some professors dont use the book even when the syllabus says it's required

I always go Bigwords. If you put in the ISBNs, it searches all of the textbook sites for you, and tells you where the cheapest places are to buy/rent. It has saved me so much money, and time as well that I would have spent searching different textbook sites.
