Back To School Book Savings
Books | Aug 27, 08
With money tight, it’s worth reminding the millions of students about to buy textbooks that they may well save serious money checking for lower prices online.
This time of year I invariably hear from both faculty and students about savings they find on required books by buying online as opposed to from on-campus brick and mortar stores. And now, with the PriceSCAN toolbar, finding savings is even easier. Just install our spyware-free toolbar, and when you’re surfing your course’s syllabus pages, highlight the title of the book you need to buy, right click and choose “search PriceSCAN for selection”. You’ll see displayed the same price comparison you’d get by coming to our site and searching for that book. Of course, if you prefer you can just use the book search option on our site. Either way, comparison shopping for books on PriceSCAN.com can help protect you from overpaying. And as I’ve argued before (see “Syllabus Savings”), if you want to support your school, do it at a fundraiser, not at the campus bookstore.
