Textbooks

Thanks to Olga Quinn



My husband recently started grad school to get his masters degree in education. We had to take out student loans for him, and we will spend a few years after he completes his degree paying the loans back. One expense we had not planned on was the cost of his textbooks. We had no idea how expensive his books would be and he thought it would be ridiculous to pay full price for books he would only be using for a short period of time. We recently got satellite internet from http://www.wildbluedeals.com/, so we decided to research to see what would be the cheapest way to buy his books online. We found out that there is a free way to get textbooks by checking them out from college libraries. Unfortunately, not all libraries carry all of the books we need, so we will end up having to buy some of them. My husband also figured out that it is not necessary to buy every book for each class. His professors have been pretty honest about which books they will use and which books are optional. My husband and I both appreciate this since we are trying to save as much money as possible.
