I'm already a big fan of Chegg, the Netflix-like website that lets you rent textbooks on the cheap, and now the company is letting you take textbook shopping on the go with its new Chegg app (Free).
Textbooks can be a major expense for incoming students, and not only will renting (or "borrowing") a book save you money, but you'll help save the planet as well. Find out how the Chegg iPhone app works after the jump.
I may talk a lot of game about refreshing your gadgets and accessories before you head back to school, but let's face it — things can get pretty expensive. Between a new Fall wardrobe, books, and tech, you may blow your budget before the school year even starts.
But good news! I found one way to save you some serious cash during your school year — rent your textbooks from Chegg instead of buying. Chegg is an online textbook rental service that lets you use your book, as you need it — with super fast shipping and returns — instead of dropping a load of dough on a book you'll only need for a semester. The process of book renting and reusing is eco-friendly in its own right, but Chegg will also plant a tree for every book you rent. So now, good for the environment also means more green in your wallet.
