When preparing for your next college semester

One of the most important things you need but never have are textbooks. Most colleges require the student to get their own textbook, but this can often be a problem because you don’t know how long you might be using it and you don’t know how much you will be using it.

However there is now an option which can not only save you money, but it can also solve many of the other problems you might have too. This option is called Chegg coupon and it’s a money saving option which can aid you in preparing for your next semester.

How Does It Work?

Chegg is fairly simple in how it operates because it basically works like an online library. But just like with any library you have to complete the signing up process before you can utilise their service.

1. First of all you should go to the Chegg homepage in order to first register your account. Expect to be asked the same basic contact information which you would enter into the majority of other websites.

2. Now you can utilise their service by entering in the author’s name, ISBN number, or the title, into the search bar on the homepage. This will then bring up a number of books which have the same or similar information on them.

3. When you have chosen your book you now have to choose the length of time which you will rent the book for. There are three options here, which symbolise the different term times across the country, and these are; 60 days, 85 days, and 125 days.

4. Costs work in the same way as you would expect. The longer you rent a book for, the more it’s going to cost you.

5. To pay for your book you should either have your credit card handy or just prepare to enter your Paypal details as Chegg accepts both. You can also enter a Chegg promo code, if you have one, in order to gain a discount of between 5 and 11 percent off.

6. Finally you need to choose the shipping method you want to use for the delivery of your books. This can take anything from a week to the next day, but the quicker the shipping the more it’s going to cost you.

What Else Is Going On Here?

Chegg doesn’t just act like a library for college students. No, it also acts as a bookshop which will purchase old textbooks from you. The advantage which this service gives is that they will often purchase textbooks which no other bookshop will touch. This makes it a perfect way to save some money, and even earn some money at the same time.

And When You are Done...

When you have finished using your textbooks, and it’s time to return them to Chegg, it’s necessary to know how to do this.

1. Log into your account and select the books you intend on returning.

2. Print off the UPS shipping label and the invoice for the books; both of these will print off together.

3. Place your textbooks in the original box which they came in and then place the invoice on top of the books.

4. Close the box and add tape to make sure it’s secured.

5. Take your box down to your nearest UPS store for delivery.

6. When the books arrive in the appropriate condition your account on the website will be updated with a confirmation, and at that point the deal is completed and you are free to start borrowing more textbooks.
