We’ve had an extremely full week filled with swimming lessons, soccer and out of town family visiting! We’ve had sooo much fun! It was also really nice to lay a bit low on the website and just go with the flow. (Have naps even!)
Anyways, today is Friday and normally it’s a regular day at Simply Frugal, but this afternoon, we’re going on our first camping trip as a family of three! So, rather than trying to get too much done, (food prep, trying to pack everything into our Honda…etc.) I’m going to forgo regular posting today. I’m sorry! Things should be back to normal Monday.
Rest assured, your favourite Links Worth Sharing post will be up as usual tomorrow morning. In the mean time, have a fantastic weekend!

Every Monday in 2015, I’ll be sharing a different idea to help you save money! Add all of these tips to your frugal repertoire and you’ll be able to save a lot of money this year! I hope you’ll gather a few new ideas or at least some inspiration from this series.
Sorry for the late post once again! We've had a whirlwind week with family in town! We've been having so much fun playing with cousins that we don't see often!
While this tip isn't for everyone, it is perfect for those that are headed back to university!
Skip the university or college bookstore this year! The best place to buy (or rent!) your textbooks is online. Here are a few places that you can buy used or rent textbooks:
Textbook Rental
Simply type in the title, author or ISBN number of the books you need into Textbook Rental and they'll send you a copy at a huge discount! Textbookrental.ca is the leading website for Canadian students looking to rent or buy their textbooks at a huge discount. Students can also sell their textbooks to Textbookrental.ca and earn cash.
Amazon.ca or Amazon.com
If you live near the US border, Amazon.com might be a better option for you, but Amazon in general is a great place to buy used textbooks! All you need is the ISBN number from the list of books your instructor tells you to get, and then you just enter that into Amazon.ca or Amazon.com. I think it's even possible to resell your books to Amazon and then get a gift card for the value of your used books.
Kijiji or Craigslist
Kijiji and Craigslist could also be a good place to look for used textbooks. You could simply do a search for the books you're looking for or even make an ad listing the books that you're in search of.
Of course, there are probably a lot of other places to buy or rent your text books. If you have experience with getting textbooks cheaper, I'd love to see your tips in the comments!
