The days left at Miami are dwindling as quickly as our cash supply after a night at Brick Street. Who isn’t trying to scrape up a little extra change for those last nights out? We all know that selling your books back to the bookstore is a total scam; sometimes you make bank and other times you walk away with a measly ten bucks for a book you paid over 100 dollars for. Luckily, there’s an alternative solution this semester, thanks to fellow Miami students.

Ever heard of Vendr? Vendr is a free online service created by Miami students Andrew Krinsky, Alexander Manners and Brian Seckel that allows students to sell and buy anything from textbooks to furniture in a safe, online environment and community. Their mission is “to provide college students with a simple and secure online marketplace to exchange goods and services.

Forget the flyers and mass messages when you need to buy or sell something. And, when you sign up for an account here http://vendr.me/welcome/  have a chance of scoring 100 dollars! (Can’t beat that). Just log in with your muohio account for all sorts of things!

So if you’re moving into a new place and are looking to make some more cash on those unusable textbooks or are looking for great deals for that new place, find it all online at Vendr! For some epic deals, sign up and get your Vendr on today, and check out their recent Facebook event for more info: http://www.facebook.com/events/277810622308768/
