    I'm not sure what to tell you about the prices. Those books cost hundreds new, and the Knight and O'Neill texts are over 1,200 pages each.
    I did find a copy of Knight for $20 when I googled it, so maybe just keep checking from time to time until you find a price you're comfortable with.
    There's no real reason for you to get the most recent edition of any of those texts. Maybe older books will be cheaper? Very little tends to change from one edition to the next in math-based text books. The pictures and order of things is usually the biggest change.

    Of course, libraries do loan out books, as was noted by Coccobill. College libraries may or may not be part of the public library system of the city, and may or may not be open to the general public. Check into those, if you're going this route.
    Yeah it's 100% me wanting something for nothing. I don't disagree. I'm like ohh I'd like to half ass learning physics and it cost me nothing, I'm entitled bro.

    I should check out my uni library and see how much I can get away with now I'm a graduate.
