I hated the books you "had" to read in school.
As I got older that changed.
When I had children I wanted them to love books so I purchased the ones they wanted to read. I also purchased a lot of educational books. Science, Art, Social Studies Poems and plays etc.
When they fell in love with books I was happy.
When they were older I started teaching their speech and debate team. My love for books came to play with this competition team.
We won many events including Nationals.
Now here I am on my blog ripping them, pasting them, painting them stacking them! Holy Cow!
I used to tell my kids "Books are for reading take care of them never hurt them and you will have them forever.
And believe me we do. ( I am working on my bonus room book clutter as we speak)
Lots of money put out for books but I didn't care.
And my little "problem" well I only use the ones I buy that are beyond repair. (thrift store)
I didn't mind spending money on books till I had to buy college books. BREAK the BANK!
That is why when Campus Book Rentals asked me to write a post about books I was excited.
My children rented books in college so I know this is a great way to save money. Now they have a new program, where, not only can the students save money, they can rent to other students and start MAKING money!
How cool is that?
The program is Rent Back. Rent Back is a new initiative that allows students to rent the textbooks they own - to other students... which is great because it makes them 2-4x more money compared to what they'd make through buyback options! (selling their books back at the end of the semester)
So if you have kids in college or on their way, check out this awesome program!
