Ok, I’ll let you off the hook, heroin is more expensive per ounce than textbooks, bar none.
But that still didn’t stop me thinking about that all the way home from school today with $1000 in textbooks in my backseat (for those of you that read $1300 on facebook, I bought my Finite Math . . . → Read More: Textbooks or Heroin? A Price Study
