Problem: You spend too much on books and don't have time to go to the library.

Solution: Rent classics or new releases from sites like Paperspine.com. Much like Netflix, the online movie-rental service, Paperspine sends books to your mailbox for a fee. Monthly plans start at $14.95 for up to three books at a time, with free two-way shipping, no late fees and an unlimited rotation of copies. The site stocks more than 200,000 fiction and nonfiction titles, searchable by genre or categories such as "bestsellers" and "at the movies." Members can also purchase over 400,000 unused titles at discounts of up to 50%; nonmembers pay a yearly fee of $19.95 to get the reduced book-purchasing rates
