Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Kristie,
I've had very good luck with Amazon Marketplace. Sometimes I can find a book for as little as 1 to 3 cents. Shipping is $3.99. Bargain book.

If you're looking for used textbooks there's always Cathswap. I use ebay a lot too.

Three places that I've used are Cathswap, The Well-Trained Mind Board, and Vegsource Homeschooling Curriculum. I've gotten some really good deals using the above places.

Bookfinder.com is the best used book search. It searches Biblio, AbeBooks, Alibris, Half.com, Amaazon and many other databases for both new and used. And the prices they list include the shipping cost. It's always my first stop for used books.

Keller Books is a bit pricey, but they have an incredible selection. It's family run by a beautiful homeschooling family.
