>tfw went to the library and rented out a copy of college textbook for an hour (they don't let you take it home)
>took pictures of every page (over 500 pages) with my phone
>return book
>saved over $300 from renting or buying used like a cück

It might've been a pajeet poverty tier thing to do but I'm not getting jewed by the college scam any further than tuition. Also it didn't take too long and I couldn't find it online at all.

How do you guys save money?

>>3359661
The last one is Jewish, and the other ones I get. I used to do all my toilet and showers at a gym

>don't use cash or debit card, find a good rewards credit card and pay off entire statement every month
Beats any checking interest rate, I recommend amex if its feasible
>>
>>3359693
Yuropoor here.
what's the problem with using a debit card? why do I need a "credit score"?
>>
>>3359668
as a person who has scanned 3 textbooks before your welcome. the point is that not all books will be easy to find online especially if you have professors who write their own book and make you buy a copy they have just finished publishing..
>>
>>3359264

gen dot lib dot rus dot ec has every book.
>>
>>3359708
Debit cards are harder to reverse txns on if it gets stolen, plus rewards points is literally free money for spending money

>never carry cash so you can claim "I've got no cash on me" in situations where you might be obligated to split a bill. Oftentimes the other person will just pay the whole thing, saying "you can pay next time"

Just so you know, there is a very thick line between being frugal and an asshole.
