If you haven’t taken a trip through a book store at your local college, you are missing out on some sticker shock.
It seems as though the teachers require the new edition every year. There must be a mark up on textbooks that is similar to jewelry, used car, or furniture. The book I need for my Management Information Systems class is a mere $119.00. I almost choked on my gum!
My parents are not paying for me to go to school, I didn’t take out a loan (I don’t believe in loans!), I am payig with cold hard earned cash!!!!!
Then when you go to sell your book back, they will give you about $50.00 bucks back. What a rip!

I just had to get this same book for a MSIT course I was taking. But, I was able to save some by finding it at my local Library.
