It depends on what kind of learner you are... if you learn best by reading and synthesizing information from a textbook, then a textbook would an important tool to help you in understand the material of the course. If you learn better by going to lectures and asking questions in open hours etc... A textbook may not be as crucial as a point of reference.

If textbooks are too expensive, I usually just try to search for the PDF version online... if not sometimes on fb groups/eBay, you could get textbooks cheaper second-hand. Messaging students in upper years of your course may help as well as they may be trying to get rid of their first year etc... textbooks.
