Only me Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 My dd needs a graphing calculator for high school. I went online to Office Depot. I had no idea they were over $100! Where is the cheapest place to get one? Would it make any difference if I bought it online or in the store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrothead Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 How about from this place: http://zoommath.com/index.html?gclid=CIe8gaTR75QCFQVxFQodMCClrQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moira in MA Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I paid just under $100 for a TI84 Plus Silver edition at Staples last month. Just afterward, this thread was posted on the Highschool board a couple of weeks ago. Maybe it will still work. http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44015&highlight=Calculator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara R Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 A lot of people use them for a high school or college class and don't need them again. Look on ebay or Craigslist, as well as other online places. If it doesn't come with a manual, as I recall there's a PDF of the manual on the TI website.

JFSinIL Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Also, there should be sale ads for back to school in the Sunday paper - the local stores will have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2cents Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 We got ours at Staples and were lucky enough to get it on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I was on the seasonal school supply aisle at Walmart. Alongside the kindergarten glue and crayons, I found graphing calculators by Casio for $20.00!!! I took it home, wondering if it was a toy, but dh assured me it was indeed almost identical to the TI 84 Plus we were preparing to buy. So make a mad dash to your closest Walmart and see if they have any. Blessings~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicheleinMN Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Wal-Mart had the TI-84 Silver Edition for $94.00 plus tax. I grabbed one as they are about $30 more everywhere else I had looked. btw-until Algebra 2 you should be able to get by with a TI-30 XS (or something like that). It's a great scientific calculator for under $15. (and....it's the one I bought for college when I went. Oh, those days of no calculators through Calculus!)
