How To: Get Free College Textbooks
Don’t you hate it when you lose a book in class and you have to buy a new one, or when you go to college and have to spend all you’re hard-earned cash on books? Not anymore.
If you want a free textbooks:
1) Write a long letter saying that "You are an intern teacher and you need *NAME OF TEXTBOOK* for a lecture at a college. Tell them your address and tell them that you will be willing to pay for the shipping. (They will most likely send it for free). Be sure to include your address, email and phone number.
2) Sit and wait for your textbook to come in the mail. If it doesn’t come in 7 days, call the place or email them.
You should get your textbook in the mail shortly after.
Multiple Books If you want multiple textbooks from different places or companies. Follow the directions below.
1) Type up one good letter in MS Word. It should tell that you are an intern or that you are a teacher and you want a copy to view if it is appropriate for your school to buy in large quantities. (I’m sure you could come up with better excuses than this, these are just examples.)
2) Save this and change the name of the textbook and other info when needed. This way you dont have to write the same thing over and over again.
Send them to all the book companies that you need books from.
You should get all of your books in 7-10 business days.
You could also do this for grades K-12 if you loose your textbook.
This egg could save you 500+ dollars in books.
