The Price of College Textbooks Stressing You Out?

Hey Guys,

So if you didn't already know I am now at college and I have to admit its pretty fun but as I sign up for my classes and look at my course list I have to confess, the price of college textbooks stresses me out!

Personally I find it unbelievable that a book for a course can cost anywhere from $50 to $200 bucks. Infact did you know that the average student will spend over $500 per term buying textbooks? To me that an amazing amount of money to buy textbooks that often only get opened one time. Plus you only need the book while you're taking the class. Who needs the book after the class is over. Well, I've discovered an amazing site to rent your college text books. Its called http://www.chegg.com/ and trust me you will save hundreds!

So stop wasting your money and start renting from Chegg.com. I’m on the bandwagon and I’ve saved enough to buy all my books under $150! I have saved some serious cash by Chegging my books. So if you're in college like me I want to help you out but not only telling you about Chegg but I also have a promo code that will save you an additional 5% off your total order, use the code CC133787.

Want proof?

Essential Biology by Campbell, Reece & Simon is $83.18 if you buy it on Amazon.com. If you rent it on Chegg.com, it’s only $11.78. That’s a savings of over $71!

It’s so simple, just search for the books you need and place your order. Chegg will ship them to you fast and at the end of the term you ship them back for free. What’s really cool is that they plant a tree for every order.

Don’t forget to visit Chegg.com and use promo code CC133787 when you check out to get your extra discount.

Why use the code? Because I am a Chegg Champion and not only do you help me earn a little extra it helps you get an extra discount on your books so its a win for everyone!

So don't let the price of college textbooks stress you out, use chegg, save some money, sit back and relax =] I am super busy at college orientation this week but I swear very soon I will be posting more fun blogs,

Until Next Time,

Be Blessed, Stay Strong and Never Give Up

God Bless,

Bet You Didn't Know I Could Paint

Hey Guys,

How are you this beautiful day? I hope you are having a great day and remembering that sometimes the little problems that pile up are simply distractions from the big picture God has given us. Anyhow I wanted to write this quick post to let you know that as well as being a best selling author I am also an artist.

In fact I am going to college to study art and creative writing. So after years of waiting I decided heading to college was a good as time as any to start selling my artwork. So I set up a shop on Etsy where I am selling my original acrylic paintings. My store on Etsy is called GraceHoneyBun (the reason for the name is because its my name plus the nickname my sister calls me). You can take a look at my most recent listing and get to my store by clicking the fancy widget just below

But if that doesn't work you can click here to go to my store as well. All the proceeds from this store go towards my college education. So if you are into art please check out my shop and if you like my work why not purchase it? If not just let me know what you think, I love feedback. I am very happy with the fact that I finally got the guts to put my work out there and I hope you enjoy it,

Let me know what you think and until next time be blessed, stay strong and never give up,

God Bless,
