so far, 2 of 3 classes have posted the books they want. just for comparisons sake:
Concordia bookstore: $133 ($104 & $29)
Amazon.ca: $87 ($65 & $22)
Chapters: none in stock
somehow, i think amazon.ca wins. it's a first, but there it is. jeez, that's a bloody $50 difference! the school is robbing us blind! *thwacks head against keyboard* it also solves my problem about how to pay for books, as these would then go on SG's internet credit card (which may or may not have expired by then... better check that). but first, let's see who's ACTUALLY teaching these classes. i had that nasty surprise last year with this class... *shudder* 1) attend classes 2) order books 3) dig up money *sigh*
