Planning for Success: With Meals
You’ve heard the famous saying, “failing to plan is planning to fail”, which is true for all aspects of life. Are you trying to eat healthier or maybe save some money and not eat out all the time? Then you should plan for success by creating a meal plan that helps you in your pockets and your waistline.
The first thing you need to do is create a master grocery list full of the basics that should…

With the 2016 spring semester coming up soon, I have some tips on how you can save money on textbooks!
1. Find out if you really use the textbooks in class
The easiest way to do this is to ask students who have had your professor before, or if you don’t know anyone, look at ratemyprofessor.com to see what people say about using the textbook.
If you don’t need it, don’t buy it or rent it! If you start class and find out you do need it, you can always buy it later!
2. See if your university library has textbooks you can use for free
Most universities and colleges have textbooks available for use, but you usually have to stay in the library with them and have a time limit for using them
If you only need to the textbook for short periods of time, then this is the perfect solution! You can access the textbook without having to spend any money.
If you really do need the textbook all the time, here’s what you do:
1. Find out what textbooks or workbooks you need for your classes!
How you find out what textbooks you need varies for each college and university. If you know how to find it, do so.
The easiest way is to find out is to go to your college bookstore AFTER you have registered for classes, and ask them to print out a list of required materials for your courses.
They will probably need your student ID or student ID number to access your schedule, so make sure you know it!
2. Write down the title, edition, and ISBN number of the textbook
The ISBN number is the best way to find the correct book online
See if there are any online access codes you need to buy with the textbook or need to buy separately
If it says you need the latest edition, e-mail your professor and ask if you can use previous editions, and if so, which ones (often there’s barely a difference between editions)
3. Use booksprice.com to find the cheapest price for the book you need!
Using this website saved me over $300 on textbooks this semester!
You enter the textbook ISBN, and it shows you the cheapest price from every site on the internet.
It also says if the price is for buying it or renting it
I always recommend renting it unless the book is for a major-specific course and might be useful in the future
Here’s what the results page looks like when you look up a textbook:
(because this is the newest edition, there are not any inexpensive ones available to buy)
You’re done! (and you’ve saved a ton of money)
Hope this helped, send me any questions in my ask!

Financial education is not the most fun topic in the world, but it is important. Knowing how to effectively and efficiently do things like plan, budget and save, especially early on in life, can really set you up for financial success – or at least lessen the chances of you putting yourself in a not so desirable situation money wise.
