    Does anyone have or know of a way to get barnes & noble coupon? I am in need of a text book and looking for ways to get the price down. TY

    • Just Me

      Did you try the library for your text book?

      • Musk

        I did. Unfortunately no luck.. Ty

      Order from Chegg.com if possible. Use Ebates for cash back : )

      I use Raise to get extra discounts on books & whatever else. It’s a discount gift card site that delivers (most) gift cards straight to your email. They have Barnes & Noble ones up to 15% off right now. Plus, if you’re a new customer & use my referral link, you’ll get an automatic $5 credit. Even better, if you make a purchase of $60 or more on your first purchase, you’ll get another $5 off with DEALNEWS60. So that’s $10 off, not including the discount on the giftcard! And you can still use a Barnes & Noble coupon sind you’re paying with a giftcard. I use the site a lot for school stuff from staples and fun stuff from V Secret and Jcpenny. Hope that helps!

      Coupons do not apply towards the purchase or rental of textbooks… It is listed on their exclusion page on their website.

    • Heather

      Have you tried online websites for ebooks? Unless you want the physical book, in that case i am not much help. The sites with e textbooks make the prices much lower. Also you could try college book stores that may have used books, ebay, craigslist, etc.

    • LindaK

      I always check cheapesttextbooks dot com It shows the lowest price for purchase, rental, etc. and covers all the usual outlets like Amazon, Alibris. Half, etc.

      If you’re spending over $100, you can use coupon BNJAN100 to take $10 off $100 through 1/13. It includes new and used textbooks. It’s not much, but it’s something.

    • Sarah H

      Just got a $10 off $100 or more coupon including textbooks. Let me know if you need me to forward it to you!

    Anyone know if b&n has started their red dot clearance?

    • Courtney S

      Their holiday red dot always starts on the 26th so it is in full swing

      • Wassup

        I saw they had red dot 1/2 off. I meant when they mark all red dots down to $2. I got a lot of great gifts & toy donation items that way in the fall.

        • Courtney

          I think it’s the 3rd week in January for 75% and then down to 2 a week or two after that.

          • Wassup

            Awesome! Thank you!

  3. Julie

    I recommend Chegg also- my daughter has gotten almost all her textbooks from them!

  4. Kim

    My 20% educator discount is not changing to 25% and it’s not applying to all the books in my order. They are all school related.

    • Courtney S

      Are you purchasing online or in-store? It will be 25% off the list price so if you’re purchasing online it won’t go any lower than 25% off list price.

  5. Courtney S

    The stores are offering a free in-store raffle to all educators also… The prize package is a Maker Technology package worth over $4000. Details can be found at the store as well as entry raffle slips

    Does anyone know wat ID do they require for homeschooling teachers? I don’t see anything specified, only a teacher ID for regular schools. thanks!

    • Courtney

      Just a letter stating that you homeschool

    • Momof6
