Bookstore Info Rant

Published

Ya know, patience is one thing..........our local community college bookstore is usually the last minute posting required books for courses, so buying online is usually next to impossible.

So, when they had the spring session classes posted 2 weeks before classes started I was thrilled. I found all my books online, saving well over $100.00..................

only to find that in one class, I did not "need" 4 books, but only one, then I see that another course has changed, all of the sudden.......and, of course, I already HAD the original book posted!

Oh, and yet another course "somehow" changed from one edition to another within that 2 week span, and of course the issue I have will not work, because the assigments are different in the newer edition (according to the instructor)!!

So much for the savings.................

Such is life, I guess..........

Thanks for listening

My trick is to buy books that I know i will read out of interest, will need to read to pass the class (like anatomy) AND which can be used for different subjects!!!
