While at www.textbooks.com I found the following information:  Although the initial cost of the book wasn’t very competitive ($91) the guarantee buyback price ($53) actually gave me a net price of $38, I guess you can look at it as a “rebate check”   :  )  Here is the info:

Guaranteed Buyback
Guaranteed Buyback is yet another way Textbooks.com saves you cash. Here’s how it works.

1. Look for books labeled “Guaranteed Buyback” (or the icon, [$])
2. Look for the Guaranteed Buyback price.
3. Return your book in good condition at the end of the semester, and we’ll give you that amount of cash back… guaranteed!

Buy used or buy new. Either way, you get the same amount of cash back. Get at least 50% of the purchase price guaranteed!

Books purchased between June 1 and November 30 must be received back at our warehouse by December 31 of the same year. Books purchased between December 1 and May 31 must be received back at our warehouse by the following June 30.

To sell back Guaranteed Buyback books back, simply log in to “My Account.” We’ll provide you with a shipping label to send us the good condition book back free of charge. You can also sell back other good condition books and see if your books qualify for our 10% Bonus Buyback program.

Financial Blessings,

GET ORAL EXAM AND/OR CLEANING IN DENTISTRY SCHOOLS

dental_smile_logoSave on Dental services at local specialized schools. If you do not have dental insurance, check out your local dental school where you can get most of your dental needs fulfilled at a reduced cost. Call in advance for an appointment block out about two hours for an exam.  Do a search on Google or the Yellow Pages for listings near you.

Don’t be too concerned about the quality of work. The students who perform these services are about to graduate (not first-year students) and all services are supervised by licensed instructors (you can always check the schools and instructors’ credentials for your peace of mind). According to Daily News 1/29/09 City Smarts’ spread, “[Dentists-in-training] need real people to practice on; thus, costs are heavily discounted (often by 50% or more)… Two of the best dental schools in NYC are (www.nyu.edu/dental/patientinfo) or Columbia (www.dental.columbia.edu/patients/sdosclinics.html) SAVES $75 for a cleaning, hundreds for specialized care.”

Financial Blessings,
