Better World booksThrough January 5th, Better World Books, a site that donates a book to someone in need with every book purchase, is having a Year End Sale and offering up 20% off 4 or more used books, and 40% off 8 or more used books from the bargain bin! Just add at least 4 books to your cart and you will see the discount reflected at checkout. Even sweeter, they always offer FREE shipping worldwide!

There are tons and tons of participating used books so make sure to take some time to browse around (excludes new books or books that ship from other sellers). As an idea, I bought 8 Children’s Books priced at $3.98 each, so only $2.39 shipped per book after the 40% off promo! Here’s what my cart looks like…

    I have tried several times to access this site, but the web page will not load. I have tried on two different computers. Is anyone else having this problem?

    • Abby

      I am having the same problem. They are probably overwhelmed with people going to the site right now and it is causing the servers to malfunction.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Darn. I am finding it to be quite slow as well. Hoping you get through soon!

    Just wanted to share how much we love Betterworldbooks. Sometimes not the fastest but always great deals and now my kids check every holiday to see if there is a sale so they can get more books. Helps with textbooks too. Not the sleeker set up but an awesome venture!

    • Hannah

      I agree! I’ve ordered a lot from Better World Books; they’re such a great business to support!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Sweet! Thanks for your feedback Melanie!

    I have used this site before. Be aware of quality. The books I received were torn up and written in all over the book. I was very disappointed… Just an FYI.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Darn. Sorry to hear that Melissa. Thanks for your review.

    I love this company! Do keep in mind that these are used books, usually Garage Sale quality. Sometimes better and sometimes worse.

      in my experience the books are below garage sale quality even when specified to be good condition. the last straw for me was not receiving one of the books I ordered.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Thanks for your honest feedback Angela.

    I order from them all the time — every couple of months when they run this kind of deal. The key is to look at the description of each book — “acceptable” will be terrible quality. Good will be okay and very good will be great:)
    I’ve never had a problem with getting books that are ripped or written in when I stick to very good condition.

    Just wanted to say I love this company and just ordered a book for my mom. it said it was in good condition and I wasn’t hoping for much…then when I got it, it was like in mint condition and was a signed copy!!! Total score!! Now a few years ago I ordered and wasn’t happy about a kids book…it was all written in on almost every page. I contacted them and they happily refunded me. Even if I took it as a loss it’s such a wonderful, non for profit company. The prices are awesome and it’s honestly hard to find decent book prices at goodwill (even garage sales!) sometimes too by us. HTH!
