College Corner - Save money with Campus Book Rentals

With the start of the fall semester rapidly approaching for my son and thousands of other college students I thought now would be a good time to share a great way to save money with my readers, renting college textbooks. For any incoming freshman and their parents who are unaware textbooks at the college book store can be very costly. My son's first semester it was over $700. for books! That's where Campus Book Rentals comes in. You can rent the textbooks you need and save a ton of money. 

You simply go to the Campus Book Rentals website, search for the books you need and put them in your cart and check out. Campus Book Rentals offers free shipping both ways (an advantage over buying your books from say Amazon or E-Bay). They have been around since 2007 and have a solid reputation. When the semester is over you just box up your books, print out the label in your account, and send your books back. 

Aside from saving money when you rent from Campus Book Rentals you are helping children in need of medical care. For every book you rent from Campus Book Rentals they donate to Operation Smile, a great children's charity that  provides medical care for children with cleft palates and facial deformities. It makes renting your textbooks from Campus Book Rentals a win-win situation, you save money and you help children around the world at the same time!
