This is not a shameless plug for my support group to get me a Christmas gift this year.  I was just reading over on Jess’s blog where she mentioned using The Old Schoolhouse’s Christmas special to give a gift to a homeschooling friend or your support group leader.  What a great idea!!!

The Old Schoolhouse is running a Buy One, Get One Free Christmas promotion right now!!  Do you realize that for only $39 you could get a 2 year subscription to TOS with the $300 free gifts and you could give a support group leader the free 1 year subscription and free gifts as well?  How’s that for a deal? 

Or I checked with Gena and they will even let you do that $39 special and give both of the subscriptions as gifts.  One will be a 2 year subscription and the other will be a one year subscription, but if you don’t point that out they probably won’t even notice.  Just think, if you just got together with a few friends and they each tossed in a few $$, you could bless be blessing your support group leader with a wonderful magazine for a year or 2 and the free gifts to boot!

Homeschooling is growing by leaps and bounds and being a support group leader is often a thankless task.  Your leaders (and I’m not just talking about the President or VP) spend a lot of time organizing meetings, activities and field trips, sending our newsletters, maintaining websites, finding locations to meet, providing activities for the kids, creating yearbooks, answering questions about homeschooling from newbies and people just considering homeschooling, the list goes on and on…  So how about saying Thank You to them this year with a subscription to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine? 

Practical and affordable.  As Martha would say, “It’s a VERY good thing!”
