I have a found a lot of good deals buying used on Amazon. Done it several times nad it has worked well and the books are a LOT cheaper. Also, check your local library to see if they carry the title you like. That way if you don't like it, you don't have to keep it and it's FREE!!!

Half.com, amazon.com, local garage sales, thrift shops and local libraries. Good luck.
