The Cheapest Way to Buy your Study Books! - starlinghunter - 11-25-2013
As you all know, study books that are fairly up-to-date...as in published past 2000...can be pretty expensive in a quick Google search, and that soon adds up significantly in your degree expenses, but the best prices you'll ever find will be at Addall Used ( AddALL Used and Out of Print book search ).
The website's book search compiles results from all over the internet in one place to find the best deal available.
I've found a vast majority of my books using it, and more often than not I pay more for shipping than for the book (i.e. less than $4)!
Scroll through the options after entering author and/or title, and find a usefully recent, low-priced textbook.

Coulda saved a lot of pretty pennies if i knew this before my TECEPs!
Thanks a ton though, definitely bookmarked.
This will come in handy for students who start swaying away from the $20 REA Clep/Dsst books and need to get more course-related material.

Yeah, kinda nice of me to wait this long to tell you about it... :/
Your right about the REA books, they're still usually above $10 on AddAll Used.

I found the used book store at the local public library to be a great resource for used textbooks, especially around end of semester.
