Generally I never go to my campus bookstore. (I go to university of toronto) But this year I did with a group of friends. The University of Toronto Bookstore actually had good prices. I went home and cross checked with sites like amazon and found the campus bookstore was actually cheaper. I was surprised and happy since I had planned on getting most of my stuff from amazon. I guess sometimes it’s worth it to check out the campus. incase anyone is looking for discount textbooks you can check out the university of toronto bookstore’s discount section. here’s a link http://www.uoftbookstore.com/online/discount_textbooks.ihtml#AER good luck in your search!!

With regard to buying online, yes definitely, and in terms of where, use a price-comparison site like http://www.campusbooks.com so you can see ALL of your options and make an informed choice. There is absolutely no reason to pay full price, you just need to know where to look in order not to, and a price-comparison site does the work for you.

Textbooks are difficult, because they’re the bread and butter of student expenses. You definitely need the course textbook – don’t skimp! It’s ok to buy the 5th ed. (usually) if your prof asks for the 6th, but you don’t want to go without the textbook. And don’t wait too long to buy it, either. After the first two weeks you will be too far behind.
