Share and Voice: Smart Textbook Buys

I know it's a  little late for most of us to be buying textbooks, but for all your future endeavors I'd like to recommend the website www.chegg.com. I'm sure some of you have heard of this website already, but for those of you who haven't I think it can be a great resource.


This website allows you to rent textbooks for a very reasonable price (often less than half of what you would pay in school stores) and delivers within 1-2 business days, which is great for last-minute textbook buys. The rental system is also great because it allows textbooks to be re-used instead of sitting unused on a bookshelf for years. The books are easy to return and they're usually in great condition when they arrive. The other great thing about  Chegg is that they plant a tree each time you rent from them!

I've used Chegg several times with great success. I encourage you all to use this site to buy your textbooks in the future, both for the sake of your wallet and for the sake of  the environment.

  1. I've heard about this website, but I didn't know they planted a tree for each textbook rented. That's cool!
