Honey is wrapping up her junior year of high school, for those go you who either have children that age or remember it yourself this is a crazy time. SAT and ACT testing, college applications, scholarship forms, campus tours, and looking at prices have sadly become a large part of our life. I say sadly, because I do not want to believe for a minute that my girl will be leaving me soon. Honey has a plan, a pretty good plan if you ask me, and I believe that she is going to succeed beautifully.
Luckily we took advantage of a program here in Florida where we were able to pay for her 4 year college education at a college in our state at 1994 prices. Prices have gone up substantially leaving me more than grateful that we took advantage of this program for both girls. We still need to pay for a place for her to live, books, and spending money so again I am grateful we saved so big on her tuition. Like everyone else we are trying to find ways to cut a few corners to save a little {or in some cases a lot} of money.
Text books are not cheap but there is a way around that inflated expense. By renting her books through Campus Book Rentals we will save enough to give
Let me be honest...
The main reason we will be renting her books through Campus Book Rental is because of their involvement with Operation Smile. With every book rental they make a donation to this amazing program. Finding companies that give back is not all that common so when I stumble upon one that does I love to give them my support. Thank you Campus Books Rental for all that you're doing to help make those sweet babies smile!
If you are in need of college books I encourage you to go take a look at Campus Book Rentals it's definitely a win, win!

The cost of books is outrageous. Often they can't be rented because they are outdated by the end of your course and new ones are required for the next group through.
Great that you found a good company with a social conscious.
That's awesome - i did NOT know about the book rental. And although I won't need it this year...I will keep it in mind.
And a junior! YIKES! My son is ALSO a junior...ROUGH ROUGH year for us :(
campus books rock I've heard lots of great things about them from the students at UF
I had a blogging friend that used that site and she was about to get 3/4ths of her book that she needed that semester from there.
We have never done the state thing because we are always moving states and so not sure what state the kids will go to college in.
