Basically just need to go into bargains books, and there are a bunch in there for a few bucks..cheaper than paying shipping, and you get a 2nd book.

heh I'm a hardcore cheapass I tell ya! I picked up the Life book plus the cookbook...

BUT! I went through ebates, then used my Student Advantage card and paid with my...Paypal Debit Master card for 4%, 5% and 1.5% respectively!

$15.97-$0.80-$0.60-$0.24=$14.33 =)

Man am I a cheapass! Hah! I managed to get it cheaper than any of you guys I'd bet! ;) I am king of the cheapasses!

Now to fleabay it for 1003994% profit! (kidding jeez)

EDIT: DOH! Forgot the $1.22 of taxes! Fine, $15.55 after taxes :( But still darn cheap! That's down from $17.25 though =) so I saved another $1.70 over the "normal" pricing =)

Hey, that's almost 10%! sweet!

<< In the Bargain Computer Books section, they have Windows 98 To Go for $2.98. I opted for HTML Complete for $4.98. >>

Thanks to the tip on the HTML book. I did the same order, hopefully using ebates (4%), iGive (2% charity donation), and Shell Mastercard (1%).

Did anyone ever receive this book? (isbn=1402805969)

My order was canceled when I called to ask status.
They said the listing below is not the same book.

They have "Life: Our Century in Pictures" listed at $52.
http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?isbn=0821226339

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Oh, by the way...they offered to "sell me the new listing for $52 - 20%- 0 shipping = $41.60 because they valued my business".
Just a slight difference in price.
Is this not "Bait and Switch"?

I got the book after it was delayed because it was out of stock. You should complain to a manager apple222...you ordered the book, and they canceled it for no reason...which sucks, because it's a great book
