Your local library is a wonderful resource when it comes to saving money, and it is one that many people do not even know about. Take the time, now, to Google your local library if you do not know where it is already. If you have just found your library or if you haven’t visited yours in a while, you should schedule some time to visit.

I remember learning something about saving money on books I want to share with you : the library has copies and you can check them out.And teachers have extra copies. If you can’t afford the books and the library does not have any on their shelves, ask your teacher. Free Soda/ Pop (for Michigan people). Washington Post.
