I just saved myself $78 on a textbook I need for my classes this fall and winter session on Kijiji (its a buy and sell site up here in Canada).
I almost cried when I found out 2 days ago I needed a textbook for my online class to the tune of $228 gag I have been looking at options of buying (new $228, no used available at the bookstore), renting ($108 per semester) or just winging it (not the best option I admit).
For $h!t$ and giggles I tried the Kijiji site this morning and found someone selling a new one for $165 here in town (if I was 2 hours north in Calgary I could have gotten one for $50 but they wouldn't ship it at my expense). I texted them and asked if they would take $150 for it and she said yes! I was so relieved and happy! That just made my day. She even gave me the receipt if I want to sell it back to the bookstore at the college when I am done with it.
