How To Get Ripped Off 101

2003-12-17

I think the main objective of the college bookstore is to mess with student�s emotions. Especially when they announce the book sale back and good prices for your books, and you suddenly find yourself not minding lugging 50 pounds of worthless paperbacks to the store thinking the $400 that was spent on it will be returned to you dutifully. Well that�s where the bookstore people got you. You fell into their well-placed trap. Because once you�re standing at the counter, with all the books stacked on top awaiting the total amount of green papers you�ll receive while imagining all the things you can acquire after this, your bubble is burst when the cashier hands you back 14 dollars.

That�s right. Fourteen cow stinking dollars. This system has to be brought down.
