Homeschooling6 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) Thanks! Just found lots of math supplements. I'm having trouble with checking out though. It keeps freezing on me. I have 22 books in the cart I don't want to lose. Edited January 13, 2011 by Homeschooling6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudGrandma Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I had problems the last time this special came around....I couldn't check out and I can't check out this time either. UGH!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plain jane Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I had problems the last time this special came around....I couldn't check out and I can't check out this time either. UGH!!!!!!! Try checking out in smaller amounts. After losing my cart 5 times last time and having to go through all the books again (you'd think I'd have learned to write my list down :rolleyes:) I decided to break my order down into several smaller ones. Once I did that I was able to check out with no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homeschooling6 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I finally was able to check out. It took about six or seven frustrating trys. I had to input my address, password each time, aaack! I opened one of the books and can't get it to save on my computer :ack2:. I'm only allowed three downloads.

redsquirrel Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I would like to give a little plug to "easy make and learn projects: the human body" I bought it years ago and have used it for first grade biology/human anatomy twice now. It is a lot of fun. It's a "cut and glue' type project book so it helps if your kids enjoys that sort of thing. I don't think of it as an actual curriculum but as fun projects that illustrate what we talked about. We made the 'brain hat' a couple weeks ago and it is still in use. It says it is for grades 2-4. I would also use some of the projects for 5th graders doing human anatomy. Some would be too simplistic but some would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyDuck103 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I had problems last night too. It was worse for their Boxing Week sales. I lost all items in my cart twice. Both times I had >20 items. Now my strategy is to add items that I want to the wishlist. Email the wishlist to myself and add items to cart from my inbox. Even then, I do <10 items at a item. I know. It shouldn't be this complicated to order stuff online but I really, really, really wanted the ebooks. Some of them are pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripe Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) I tried with only one item to see. There was a slight delay but it worked for me. I was able to do it for $1 price. // ETA: Has anyone used this one: Teaching Electricity—Yes You Can! http://teacherexpress.scholastic.com/teaching-electricity-yes-you-can Edited January 16, 2011 by stripe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheres Toto Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 The prices finally went to $1 and I was able to make it through the check-out. But, then out of 17 books I ordered, I was unable to get 4 of them to download. I tried on 2 different computers, through the order email and through the webpage. One of them ended up saying I used my three downloads and expired, so I have another email in to customer service. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
