Feels like it sometimes, doesn't it? As Nursing Students, we are down to our last dollar and frantically look for the best deal when purchasing our Nursing books. Now, if I saw this ad, I would walk away, too. Have you found great deals when buying your Nursing books?

I was happy to find out the nursing books through the my college bookstore were going to be $530 for both years. Its a package and even buying all used I would be spending more then buying the package of all new books. I was afraid i would be spending much more over the two years.

This was back before e-books and rentals became an option:

I would Google the ISBN code to find discounted or used versions. Occasionally I'd buy an international version, which is softcover and much cheaper. Just make sure you are getting the correct edition when you buy.
