Through March 29th at 3PM EDT, Better World Books, a site that donates a book to someone in need with every book purchase, is having a Spring into Reading Flash Sale and offering up an additional 50% off 5+ used books from the bargain bin! Just add 5 used books to your cart and you will see the discount reflected at checkout. Even sweeter, they always offer FREE shipping worldwide!

Better World Books

They have tons and tons of used books that are participating in this promo, 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 5 Children’s books priced at just $3.48, so only $1.74 shipped per book when you purchase 5! Here’s what my cart looks like…

    I love this site! Great customer service, and great books. Try to get books that are good, very good or like new condition.

      Sweet! Thanks for your review Courtney!

    …I don’t like this site. I have never had a good experience with them. I have tried them 3 different times, and placed 3 orders, and they are very inaccurate. A total lack of quality control. I never get the correct titles, let alone the specified condition of the book I ordered. Once they totally mispackaged, and sent me someone else’s order altogether, then couldn’t find mine – and didn’t seem to understand what the problem was; since it said it was “delivered.” Since they couldn’t find mine I had to beg for a refund, which took over a month to receive. The other orders I had were missing some titles I ordered, and ended up with titles I didn’t. Not even the correct number of books in either order. It is always a struggle with their customer service, they always seems to be missing a block or two.

      Oh darn! Sorry to hear that Vicki! 🙁 Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

    I have ordered from here at least five or six times and never had a problem.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Awesome! Thanks for sharing Natasha!

      Agreed! I love that they are trying to be carbon friendly, allowing less trash (books) in landfills, and support literacy worldwide. It’s a GREAT organization. I am sorry that some people have had issues, but in the numerous times that I have ordered, I have only had ONE quality issue and they took care of that for me. I agree that you should look for books that are good and very good for the best deal. A lot of the books have been discharged from one library or another. I love seeing where ours have come from!

    Do you need a promo code? I have 5 in my cart (sold from Better World Books) and am at the page right before placing the order, and the 50% has not come off.

      Are you shopping from the Bargain bin? Only the ones from the Bargain Bin (used) are included on the sale. If you’ve selected the right items the price will just adjust itself.

    Thanks for the heads up, much cheaper for used books than other sites with the shipping being free😃 I look forward to getting all the great books I found 👍

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome!

    As a homeschooling mom I am always on the look out for more book for my kids. I snagged 5 books my kids are going to love. Thanks for posting these deals!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re so welcome!

  7. tam

    Discount wouldn’t come off for me til I ordered six books.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      How odd, did your books from the bargain bin? Hope that helps!

  8. Terry

    I am picking books with the sale symbol, but they aren’t showing half off when I check out. What am I doing wrong?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Darn! I am still finding the discount listed in my order summary when I grab 5 books from the bargain bin. Are you by chance on a mobile device?

    I have ordered from them over a dozen times too. I will order from them again, but with some stipulations. I never expect that I will get every book I order; 90% of the time at least one or 2 of the books I order are actually not in stock. They don’t charge until shipping so no big deal unless you need a full set of books (which has happened to me and then I order the missing one on Amazon). I have multiple times received books that are not as described condition-wise and/or ISBN-wise. I have sent in pics and I always get my $ back. Children’s books are the most likely to be in worse than described condition – thankful my kids are on to chapter books now! However, this is a GREAT way to get books cheap without having to dig in bins at the thrift store or hope they are in stock at Half-price. Good luck!

      Thanks for such helpful feedback Allison!
