Press Release Summary: A new online service, Skoobit.com, provides college students
with an affordable way to rent the textbooks they would other otherwise have to buy
full price.

Press Release Body: Weston, Fl. September 19, 2008 -- It has only been a couple of
weeks since college students returned to school, and for many of them funds are
already running dry thanks to overpriced textbooks required by their coursework.
Skoobit has finally found a way to put a stop to this trend, and put much of that
money back into the pockets of the students who need it most by offering a new
rental system for textbooks.

Students are spending an average of $300-$400 per semester on textbooks alone, so
Skoobit has created a way to save students hundreds of dollars, by offering a rental
system similar to the one students use for renting movies. For too many years
textbook publishers have raised book prices at the expense of students across the
nation, and with little competition, these price raises have gone unchecked.

Skoobit provides a great solution for students who want a new way to save money.
Skoobit’s website, www.skoobit.com, is very user friendly, making sure to guide
students every step of the way. Skoobit provides a variety of different plans, with
the most popular plan being $10.99 a month per book. Skoobit will also provide FREE
shipping and handling for both renting and returning of the textbooks. Skoobit’s
services, in some cases, can help students rent every text book they need for around
the cost of purchasing just one of their overpriced books.

“Last week I had the opportunity to speak with some college students, and I was
amazed by how much money they were spending on textbooks, its crazy,” said
Christopher Blythe creator of Skoobit. “I am so excited to introduce students to
Skoobit because I feel that they will finally be able to save so much money that
they could spend in better ways,” added Christopher.
