Hi All! Where is the cheapest place to get the book needed for the Business Administration Capstone? I am assuming there is a cheaper option other than buying it through the website.
Also, I am already nervous about the final paper.... actually the reason I put off for so long!
Does anyone care to share examples?
Thanks in advance!

Check Amazon textbook rentals.
Amazon only supports standard semesters, so a textbook rented now is due on December 17th or so. I ended up having to rent mine elsewhere so I could choose a return date that made sense given my capstone doesn't end until Jan 27th.
The link that allvia listed is a good place to price compare for textbook purchase and rental. I used studentrate.com which seems to include more options.
Note, if you're looking for the Crafting & Executing Strategy (21e) textbook for the TESU Business Admin capstone for November term, you're going to need to rent an eBook or find a place that can ship you a textbook in 2-3 days, given the course starts a week from today and they may have prep time before shipping.
Also keep in mind that it has to be this specific version, as the older ones don't have the same case studies, and half the course is based on case study analysis.

So excited to hear that I can get an e-Book. Phew! The little things are giving me anxiety and my capstone isn't 'til next semester.

Yeah, there are multiple options including eBook rentals. Though, for some reason, the eBooks are like $100 more expensive to rent than a physical book. I'm sure this has a lot to do with the publisher being greedy. In any case, I ended up just renting a physical textbook (brand new even) to save myself some cash.
Hopefully, you can get the anxiety out of your system early. My capstone starts tomorrow so I've been dealing with my own anxiety.
