Books & Magazines: How to Save with Discount Codes

Hey there fellow silverfishes and bookworms, are you having trouble getting books and magazines without spending a fortune? You are not alone. It can be pretty difficult to buy books at affordable prices if you do not know where to look. Fortunately, you have come to the right place. Here we have put together some tips that will help you get more books to bury your nose in without breaking the bank.

Online bookstores

If not online, where else? Buying books online can be very rewarding if you know where to look and how to go about it. There are several sites online that offer books with significant discount offers. The incredible thing about online stores is that you can get books in hardcover (which comes with shipping costs, depending on where you’re shopping) or in virtual formats: kindle, PDF, Doc, etc. Stores like Amazon, ebaybooks, biblio, etc. are very good sites to try out.

Compare prices across the board

One of the major mistakes book-shoppers make is that when they are searching for a book, they just visit a single store, pay whatever the price-tag says and walk away. But did you know you could spend less on books just by visiting more than one store and getting different quotes? No two stores have the same price for the same item - at least not usually. So it’s good practice to visit different stores and compare their prices on the different books you need and then make purchases based on your budget. Another thing comes to mind: Do I have to manually visit all the book stores there is? No, Gosh no. That would be horrible. You can use shopping engines like bing shopping, Google books, Price Grabber books, WeCompareBooks, etc. to collect and analyse prices of books from numerous stores in a single move. Cool, right? Yes, we think so too.

Get your ‘Coup on’!

Have you ever wondered what life would be like without coupons? Ugh, we try not to. That’s why this tip is so important. In your quest for cheaper books and magazines, coupon sites are a goldmine where you can pick up a number of books and magazines for a fraction of the price. Feel free to look through our books and magazine category for juicy offers from reputable stores.

For magazines it’s a little bit different. Although the above tips would help you get magazines at a cheaper price but there’s more:

Subscription deals

Well, this is basically like paying less for more. You could sign up for a subscription package with your favorite magazine publisher and receive magazine copies bi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, etc, depending on what packages are available.
