2cents Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'd love to have an adjustable spiral binder but it is so expensive and Staples does it cheap. I'd love to have an ipad too. I just got one of my dream items this weekend-a Bamboo Tablet so that I can freehand write on the computer. I'm connecting it to the big TV. This way I can show diagrams and algebra problems on the big TV instead of using the whiteboard and pens (they are giving me headaches). I like gadgets so this will be fun!:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorganClassicalPrep Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Language tutors multiple times a week- both French and Spanish. Failing that, 3-4 different programs for each language that would form a solid basis instead of having to pick one program that inevitably has weaknesses.

Tap Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I really wanted TOG for the longest time. I looked at it soooo many times and never bought it. Then one day, I was in a 2nd had store, and there it sat....so pristine and THICK, very, very thick. I spent an hour perusing it. I went back another day, perused it some more. I didn't buy it but over the next 6mths, I went back and looked at it several times (it was in an unlabled plain black binder, so no-one knew what it was). I REALLY, really wanted to like it. I even came here and re-read reviews, seeing if there was something I was missing. Nope, it just wasn't for me. I was finally able to let go, but it took 6mths and looking at it at least 6 times for me to do so. LOL :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeside Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Oh yeah. I got the middle ages that way. I've got my ears wide open for a shout out here. OUP is having a spring sale and these books are included. On the website the individual volumes are showing up at the sale price, but the set is not. (You have to put them into your cart to see the sale price.) I spoke with someone yesterday who gave me a sale price for the set, but I didn't write the price down.
