What college textbooks?

We have to pay 100 dollars for a brand new textbook just so we can get a stupid access code to be able to do our homework assignments. Gotta love Pearson and their money grabbing ways.

And this is why, for all things which are not 'online'...there are.....alternatives.

You know you're paying money to be there, so you can buy those textbooks, so you can make money to pay for them... right?

After the fact plus interest. Makes total sense.

That's why I quit after 1 year. Paid it off in 5 years, never looked back. Make sure you need it. Lots of companies reimburse these days.

Gotta love the professors who choose to use those books as opposed to other options.

They're unique one-time access codes for the class. I'm sure someone could steal the codes, but they'd still only be good for 1 use.

Just get like half the class to chip in, access it once and download/save it all and share it. Done. :p

"Pay $100", I'm assuming you are a freshman then? Calculus book for two semester class is $275 and a Physics book was $350, before tax.
