Thinkwell Sale question

[foxbridgeacademy]

HSBC is going have a Thinkwell sale May 16-19th, is this likely to be it's last sale before September or will I have another chance to get it at the reduced price?

That's hard to say, but they have it on sale fairly regularly so there is a good chance they will have it on sale again.

I would expect it to go back on sale in July or August, but there are no guarantees. It would be unusual for it to go 3 months without another sale.

 

ETA: You have a year from the time you purchase to activate it, so you can buy now and start the subscription in August.

Yeah on top of having time to activate it you can extent it for a fee too.  Can't recall how much that is, but it's not full price at least.

TY, and yeah I know, never any guarantee but hoping someone might remember it being on sale at a certain time or that it goes on sale regularly, much appreciate the info.  

 

As for why it matters, it's that I'm trying to 1. decide between it and a local class that uses curriculum I don't like (leaning toward the class anyway)  and 2. If he's even ready for the local Math class when it starts in August, otherwise we'll need to skip the class and buy Thinkwell then.

I  used the hsbc discount a couple of times. Thinkwell is on sale every few months.

You'll never have to wait long for a sale. You can safely wait until you make the decision. I think the sales are usually every other month - but sometimes they do a weeklong sale even in the off months. It is very frequent. 

 

I did the same thing trying to decide at the beginning of the summer a couple years ago and ended up buying later in the summer.
