Save Money and Make a Difference

And guess what?!
You can rent textbooks you already own to other students through CampusBookRentals.com! Just got to RentBack.com, search to see if your book is rentable, ship the books for free, the books get rented out to other students, and you GET PAID! That means you could make 2-4X more money compared to just selling your book.
But what I really like about CampusBookRentals.com is that they are Making a Difference. They’ve partnered with Operation Smile and donate a portion of their proceeds to them. Operation Smile performs life changing cleft lip and palate reconstructive surgeries on children whose families can’t afford it. How great is it that you can save money and help contribute to a great organization?!
P.S. Sorry for the lack of outfit posts this week. My photographer, aka my husband, has been working crazy hours which means no outfit photos. But next week I’ll be back with a double dose of outfits!

Linking up with Coffee Beans and Bobby Pins for Friday’s Five!
I teach an undergrad marketing class part time and need to remember this for my students!

Just hearing the word textbook makes me feel stressed 😀 But that sounds like a great site!
Oh hi you two! (just followed you on Pin, BL and Twit) I know the dr that does operation smile. Well, not personally but my sis's friend is married to him and I have met her. Cool. Your comments about minty green were so nice to read. Thank you!!! 😀
What a great idea! Believe it or not I put mine out at a garage sale with a bunch of other books and people bought them.

better than anything
Renting college textbooks was such a lifesaver for me. It saves money and it helps you get rid of all the stuff you don't need to hold onto.

Campusbookrentals.com is a credible site and often has the best rental prices. However always do a Textbook Price Comparison. For example this particular nursing book:
Price Compare Medical-Surgical Nursing: 9780323065702
You will see that you can buy a used copy for a few dollars more than the price of a rental – no need to worry about returning on time, plus you may be able to resell the book.
