Textbooks

When going to meet someone, you think every person might be them, even when they don't fit the description.... He said the guy was tall, but maybe he's more of an average height, and I didn't get a hair colour or anything. I have a name, but that doesn't tell me much, though I might have an ethnicity from it...but maybe not.


Textbooks are way too expensive. You think university students' wallets are drains by tuition? My books cost a good chunk of money too..


With meeting people who I've contacted over Craigslist or Locazu.com, I've bought two books used so far, I have one this morning, and another one hopefully within the next week. In total, from my original purchase amount, I will have saved abouttttt.... $100.00.


Haha, the guy I was meeting actually found me while I was writing this post. And he was quite tall XD


Some other places people get used textbooks from are places like Amazon, random other sites that sell books, buy and sell Facebook trade groups..etc... You can also rest textbooks. I haven't done this personally, but some people would pursue this option, as it can potentially be quite a bit cheer than buying the book.


I don't know, I have a lot more university to go. Maybe I'll have tried evey type of book buying, selling, borrowing, renting.. I guess I'll find out!


Now.. off to class!
