MatchBooks | A Free Online Choice for Students to Reduce Textbook Costs
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of MatchBook for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
One of the biggest expenses of going to college is the purchasing of text books. Wouldn’t you think that more people would go to college if they knew that their textbooks could be cheaper or even free? I hesitated so many times to take the basis college courses just because of the costs of textbooks.
