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,

The Elusive College Laptop

Hey Guys,


As you may know I recently graduated high school and in about two weeks I am heading out to college which is great but also a little daunting. I am going to an out of state school in North Carolina which is many miles away from my sunny home in Orlando, FL.

One of the things that come along with a college career are college expenses. I am very blessed to be on a full ride scholarship apart from some loose change. I have most of the things for college apart from one elusive essential item, a laptop. As part of my college experience and part of my work a laptop is kind of essential. In order to keep my blog, website, books etc going I need to have a laptop for school.

I have been able to get half of the cost of my laptop but I am still missing a big chunk of the cost of the laptop. So I have a simple request. If you like my work and appreciate my blogs could you support me in getting my college laptop. If you take a gander over to the support Grace page on my official website. In fact you can click this link to get to the page. Once you arrive you will see a PayPal donate button that allows you to donate any amount from $5 to $100 into my paypal account. This donation will only be used towards the purchase of the laptop and once I have reached my target amount I will let you know.

Any support I recieve means the world to me and helps me on my journey to my dreams. I am very excited about college and the possibilities that are coming my way. I will keep you up to date on all the happenings in my life and on the situation with the laptop.


Thank you for your support in advance,



God Bless,
