How I got through college without buying a book
Funny enough. all my professors post lectures notes which are usually enough for the entire course. And the only time I have ever bought a book was for an open book course, so obviously you need it for the test. Then I go on the interwebs and find one that's ~5 years old and buy it for $20-30.
