Check half.com ... I've found a lot of my nursing books on there - and if you can get away with a slightly older edition (and you almost always can), you can really save a bundle!

Campusbooks.com compares prices from popular textbook sites - including half, ebay, amazon, textbooksrus, and numerous others.
I agree with the PP who suggested you can almost always use an older edition (the previous one), without much issue.
Thanks guys!! I'm checking out these websites and prices seem to be much lower than the previous ones I've looked at...thanks again :)

I have been happy with Amazon. They offer new books, used and used books offer by Amazon associates. I have used the site for years and so far no problems. Using a good used book can save you hundreds every semester. In fact, Amazon has a program in which you pay a nomimal amount up front and afterwards all books you order will be shipped free.
