CHEA Fundraiser @ Barnes & Noble stores
|
Hello, friends,
I am writing to let you know that this SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, Barnes and Noble is hosting a Bookfair to support Wisconsin CHEA.
The Barnes and Noble locations that are taking part in our bookfair are:
MADISON EAST
MADISON WEST
BROOKFIELD
GREENFIELD
MAYFAIR
RACINE
All day long, from opening to closing, anything you purchase at Barnes and Noble (excluding gift cards, memberships, magazine subscriptions or textbooks -- workbooks and home school books are not considered textbooks) will be counted towards a donation that will be given to CHEA by Barnes & Noble.
Remember that if you are a CHEA supporter, and have the CHEA identification card, you can use that to also get a discount as a teacher at Barnes & Noble.
Attached to this email is a voucher that you can download and print. Please take this to the store with you on Saturday when you shop. This will be an easy way for them to credit your purchase to the CHEA donation.
Don't worry if you can't print the voucher, or get to the store and find out you have forgotten the voucher. If so, simply tell the clerk that you want your purchase to be counted in towards the Wisconsin CHEA donation.
So, please, get out to Barnes and Noble this Saturday and show your support of Wisconsin CHEA. Store hours are normally 9 am to 10 pm on Saturdays. You may check with your local store to confirm these hours.
Also, please spread the word-- anyone can help us out with this bookfair donation-- they do not need to be homeschoolers. Anyone shopping at one of the Barnes & Noble locations listed in this email may ask to have their purchase credited to the Wisconsin CHEA donation.
REMEMBER-- this offer is good ONLY this SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 2008!!
Thank you for your continued support and prayers!!
Jan Gnacinski
Wisconsin CHEA

TOS promo
I wanted to tell you about a special promotion the magazine for homeschool families is running right now. If you subscribe for just a year, you actually (while supplies last) will receive 25 curriculum-type gifts from various vendors. The value is huge – hundreds of dollars’ worth of freebies to you. No strings attached – except that TOS only has about 2000 of these “gift baskets” left in their inventory. First come, first served. Here’s the link which explains more, below. You can even view all the gifts and find out how they’ll arrive. Hurry, though, they go really fast. Last time the magazine did this they sold out about two months early. Keep in mind too, the Schoolhouse Store has over 2000 homeschool products now and it’s free shipping on everything always. No minimum buys.
The above link will show you the pictures of your free gifts plus give you all the details. |

HUGE After Christmas Sale
|
The Schoolhouse Store has the largest sale of the YEAR going on right now. It starts at 12:01 am December 26th and goes only until January 1 at midnight (eastern time). It's the annual After Christmas Sale and you will find homeschool curriculum marked as much as 50% off. But there's more...
|
Every day, the first ten shoppers of the day are getting some special gifts. A LOT of special gifts! If four or more products are purchased, you could qualify as one of the first ten of the day (so order early in the morning - or better yet - just after midnight on any of the sale days - eastern time). The 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st and 1st - each of these days, we're going to have ten winners. The first ten winners of the DAY (those ordering four or more items) will get something amazing. And we're doing this every day of the sale! That's a LOT of packages we're giving out! So what do you get?
For starters, you will receive the 19 current promo gifts - FREE. This is a value of over $200, and shipping is FREE as well. It'll feel just like Christmas all over again as 19 gifts start rolling in from the participating companies over the next few weeks! Want to see them? Here they are: 19 FREE Gifts
You're getting them ALL free if you are one of the first ten customers of the day to order four or more items.
There's more! You'll also get all THREE audio CDs from The Old Schoolhouse. This is over 500 minutes of listening time! You get Secrets of Successful Homeschooling, Home Schooling the High Schooler, and The Well-Integrated Homeschool. Have some of these already? Give them as gifts to a new homeschooling mom!
What else do you get? The first ten qualifying shoppers each day are getting a one-year subscription to The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine! Have one already? Add this year on to your existing one or bless a friend.
And there's more! The first ten qualifying shoppers are also getting a Draw Write Now® book. Our kids LOVE these!
This whole package is ENORMOUS. And each day, the first ten qualifying shoppers will win it! So get ready! Four items is not a whole lot. Some of the products are extremely inexpensive (under $10) Get four for your chance to be among the first ten orders of the day.
Oh, but wait there's more! Our largest order of the day (by purchase price) is going to win the package as well. So even if you aren't an early bird, you still have a chance at winning our awesome BONUS package valued at over $300!
|
 |
Tuesday, December 26 - Monday, January 1, 2007 are going to be your best days to SAVE and WIN! We have over 50 items in this sale and a store full of wonderful products you'll definitely want to browse.

School supplies
FYI--School supplies are on sale this week at KMart in the Milwaukee area.
If you can get your hands on a Target sale paper, Kmart will honor the prices of any of their things too -- I noticed the RoseArt markers at 2 for $1 and the crayons at 10 cents a pack were cheaper at Target.
Besides picking up the things my kiddos will need throughout the year I always buy extras for various donation "drives" and the Samaritian's Purse Christmas shoebox project later this fall. |
