Saving Money!!

This summer I worked at a bar in downtown Milwaukee. I made at least $150 every Friday and Saturday night and got to make it in an environment I really enjoyed. At the end of the summer I realized that with my hard class schedule I would not be able to continue on with my job due to lack of transportation and my demanding class schedules. Classes like Global Marketing, Stats, and PR classes lead to very expensive books ranging from $95-$175 or more. I wanted to save as much of the money I made this summer as I could and decided to start looking for an alternative way to get books for cheaper. I didn't really know where to look until about three weeks before school started. One of my good friends was talking to me online and had told me about how she had saved up to $200 on books this semester because she found a site she could rent them off of. I was a little unsure about the renting books concept because I had never heard of it until now, but I decided to look into it. Chegg.com was the name of the website, and i completely recommend it to everyone who wants to save money on books. My global marketing book, normally $185, I rented for around $85 (the most I even paid to rent a book). I completely recommend the site and will continue to use it for the time left I have at Marquette University to save as much money as possible!
