happypamama Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I'm starting this thread for people to add any Black Friday or pre-Christmas sales on homeschooling materials. Last year, Pandia Press offered a 40% sale on everything, Black Friday only, and I'm hoping they do again. Also, Peace Hill Press offered a 40% sale on downloads and 30% sale on shippables on December 1 last year, so maybe they will again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJPPKGFGSC Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Not Black Friday, or even before Christmas, but Mr. Q's Science has been 50% off for the last few years in January. http://eequalsmcq.com/ I am planning ahead and ordering the Kitchen Chemistry this winter.

We've bought from that sale twice now and will buy the Physical Science if he does the sale again in January. Facebook says that Geography Matters had a big Cyber Monday sale last year, so I'm watching for that one again so I can buy Trail Guide to US Geography.

mmasc Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Today Amazon has some Learning Resources products on lightning deals. I got the Learning Cash Register for $16 and the Sneaky Snacky Squirrel game for $11. Both were on Christmas lists. Yay!😀 Zulily also has Quercetti marble runs and Magformers right now. I'm not sure how the prices compare to other places though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Wow, so Black Friday and Cyber Monday are in different months. I wonder if that will increase sales on both days, for people using cash and debit cards instead of credit cards. There is nothing I want, yet, but having the two big sale days in different months would change the amount of money I'd have to spend.

There is nothing I want, yet, but having the two big sale days in different months would change the amount of money I'd have to spend. I did notice last year that some stores did sales one day or the other but not both, or they didn't do anything for Black Friday but started a longer sale on Cyber Monday. So who knows? Maybe two different on the will mean more sales overall? I was just bummed that I didn't know there would be internet sales on Black Friday, and I was away from home and didn't think to check. This year, I will be checking, no matter what else is going on. 40% off of two $44 history plans would be really nice, and I bypassed their September sale in hopes that they'd do the 40% at BF again.

Kerileanne99 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Is RightStart's $180 manipulative set a Black Friday thing or is it always that much? Yep, regular price. RS does do a Cyber Monday sale every year, but it is only on a limited number of overstock or returned/slightly damaged merchandise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EndOfOrdinary Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Does anyone know whether Art of Problem Solving has Black Friday sales? Or good sales at another time of year?

Meadowlark Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 What page? Their FB page? Now that I think about it, the link was in an email. I recently placed an order so I was in their system. I didn't see it on their website and I'm not on FB. I can't imagine it'd only be for current customers so I would email and ask to be on the list for the earlybird special, as they call it.
