Welcome!

For my weblog, I chose to inform you guys about resources we can benefit from being a college student. If you are on your own or have help with paying for school, I have listed several resources that can help save some money. I hope you find some of them are new to you and can benefit from them! Enjoy!

Buying in Bulk?

Sam's Club offers a college membership deal! I personally like to buy my pet's food in bulk, paperware, and some frozen things in bulk because I personally do not want to continuously buy them weekly. The one thing that comes with buying in bulk if you need room for the big items. Just something to consider if you have a family and would like to save some money on current subscriptions!

Buy/Sell Your Textbooks

Here are a few of the trusted places and websites I have used to buy and sell my textbooks. If you are like me who does not like clutter and would like to maybe make some money back off your textbooks, look no further! 

Barnes and Nobles offers to buy back textbooks

College Bookstores

Facebook Marketplace (I have found a decent amount of my textbooks on FB Marketplace)

Ebay

Amazon Prime

*There are also a bunch of other websites on google but here are a few of the more trusted and easier options*

Amazon Prime is Life

The convenience and the price for it has come to a high desire now that Amazon prime changed the game! Thankfully, college students living on a budget can benefit from another affordable deal thanks to the student discount!

My sister currently pays for it but I am wondering if we should make the switch now that I am back at school! Something to consider. Below is the link if you are interested in signing up for Amazon Prime.
