Well, most of the tips I'm aware of were already covered, but here's another thing about college books:
Sell them back ONLINE. Don't even BOTHER with your school's textbook buy-back deals; though it depends on the demand of the book, you usually only get a few dollars.
I usually sell mine at half.com. There is a commission fee (usually 15% or so?), and sometimes the shipping reimbursment is less than the actual cost, but you save money. You most likely won't make profit or even break even, but you technically only spend a few dollars per semester if you do sell them.
This is kinda bad, but if you have a friend with a meal plan, who's willing to let you bum a meal, try and sneak some back. I did this a lot last year, and it was very convinent and saves money too. Just be careful not to get caught!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
