Did you know that you can save as much as 90% by buying used textbooks? That’s serious money!

And one more thing – you can sell your used textbooks, too. You’ll either save on your next order and make a few extra dollars. Either way – it’s economical and eco-friendly.

Go for used textbooks – you’ll be living green and saving green and tickled pink, of course.

Need A Notebook?

Deb Savvy — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 00:08:12 +0000

These days a notebook computer is not a luxury, it’s an essential for any serious student. If you’re shopping for a laptop for back to school, check out some of the deals over at the HP Home & Home Office Store .

Notebooks start at under $500 – that’s a price that can be hard to beat.

The Number One Dorm Essential?

Deb Savvy — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 23:35:36 +0000

For anyone living in a small space, including dorm dwellers, what’s the one thing you need more than anything else? More space, of course. While you can’t actually expand that dorm room, you can maximize the space that you’ve got.

As they say on all those great home organizing shows like Clean House, ‘make use of that vertical space’. Plan ahead and pick up some modular, ready to assemble storage to take with you when you set your son or daughter up in their new room. That way, instead of running from store to store to find something that might work, you’ll be unpacked and organized in no time at all – and you’ll have the rest of the day to explore the campus and maybe even enjoy a nice lunch.

Things have not changed so much. Today’s hottest dorm looks are bold simplicity once again.
