There are some options, as this New York Times essay humorously explains.

One suggestion: check out BookFinder.com. They can help you save a significant portion of the cost, though not without some caveats. It helps to know before classes start what text you’ll need, what edition, and whether it must be the U.S. version.

If you want to take a more activist approach, you can also check out MakeTextbooksAffordable.org.
