Save money on textbooks: save for later

Unfortunately, most people have bought their books for the year, and the refund time period is over...but it's definitely something to keep in mind for the summer term and/or next year:

Great article! The “blockbuster” for textbooks is pretty neat (although still a bit pricy).

Thanks for the link Danielle!!

I wish I knew about this earlier! But then again, most of my courses this term all have custom courseware.
