Have you ever thought that as a student you could have saved some money by seeing if you could rent textbooks. It was not something that occurred to me, but thinking back it would have saved me a lot of money. I wanted to have my own copy of a book so I did not have to queue for the library copy, but there were not that many books that I kept for long after the course that I was glad that I had bought. I am sure that if I had thought about it textbook rental could have saved me a lot of money. So if you are a student, thinking of becoming one or have children at University, then it could be well worth you looking into this idea and find out how much money you could save by doing this. There is likely to be a big market for it at the moment, what with the recession and everyone trying to save money, so it coudl be worth looking into it quickly to make sure you get copies of the books you need before anyone else does.
