I was a kindergarten special ed teacher before becoming a stay at home mom and I LOVE The Mailbox!! They make great books with great and fun ideas and activities!
I think their website went down. I can’t get on the website. 🙁
I was in the middle of ordering and it crashed… great… wanted those items for my classroom…
And within minutes of this being posted the site cannot keep up! Down due to capacity problems…
i get an error message.
Would any of these books be good for homeschooling??
I wish these had been available when I homeschooled my 3 grown children. I think they’d be terrific.
You might just want to check later… I have reloaded my cart 3 times now and everytime it crashes I lose all the items I put in it…getting very frustrated.
I just ordered 5 books for less than $10! I teach 6th grade. Try, try again if you cannot get on the first time. It took me three tries.
I just bought 5 books for less than $19! I teach 6th grade. If you cannot get on, try, try again. It took me three tries, but it was worth it. Happy shopping!
Thank you!!! I am looking forward to using these with my first grade kiddos this school year!
I ordered 7 books for $23!!! I just switched subject areas that I teach and was looking for resouces! Thanks so much for this!
You can also use coupon code NOVR and it will deduct $10 off a $50 order!
I could not get through on their website (kept crashing) so I called their toll free number 877-696-0825 and spoke with Brenda who took my order over the phone and honored the 30% off with free shipping. I got 6 books for less than $20! Thank you so much for posting this Collin! I love these type of books. They give my kids a fun way to stay smart. 🙂
Thank you so much for this posting! I just bought seven books for less than $19.60 (original retail over $85). I have been a special education teacher for the past four years, and finally will have my own classroom (first grade) in the fall so I definitely can use these resources! As far as getting into the website, I just kept trying and finally got in! I am looking forward to using these in the fall!
ALSO!!! If you’re a BIG SAHM and/or teacher and order $50 more you can use the code “NOVR” and get and get $10 off!! 🙂
Thanks for the tip! I can’t resist a sale on teacher stuff.
so awesome! I finally got in and it was very smooth and easy once the site loaded. I am switching grade levels from first to fourth this year and this is a HUGE help! Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you for sharing!!
Stick with it and be patient. I lost my order 3 times! but in the end I scored $225 worth of books for $45!
Spent $14.00 for $79.75 in books for my girls. I have lucked out with so many great deals this summer for our homeschool materials!
I had lots of trouble with site crashing, too. What I eventually had to do was write down all the item numbers of the stuff I wanted. When the site came back, I quickly entered in each item number in the search box on the top left, and clicked buy on each of them, and then quickly checked out. I got $75 worth (clearance price) for $42.50. 🙂 This will help ALOT with our homeschooling this coming year. Thanks!!
I ordered 4 books for $7.00 !!! Im so excited, thank you sooooo much 🙂
I subscribe to The Mailbox and have lots of them sitting on my desk. I ordered some of the magazine slipcovers to store them for $1. Great deal!
CRASHED 🙁 I’ll check back later.
In the meantime, I’m considering homeschooling my girls (one’s 3 and one’s 1, so not quite yet). But, where do I start? How do I know if I can handle it? I taught math, so I know I can teach her calculus (many years from now), but can I really teach her to read? Any advice would be appreciated.
Start at the library. I did a search for homeschooling books. The best one I’ve found is “The Everything Homeschooling Book” by Sherri Linsenbach. It has a TON of links on where to go for free or low-cost options, kinds of homeschooling (structured, unit study, unschooling, Charlotte Mason, faith-based, umbrella/satellite, etc.) tips and hints, typical homeschool days, links to homeschooling blogs, how to choose curriculum, etc. Very, very helpful! I have two boys: 3 & 1 that I plan on homeschooling. Good luck!
Thanks! I will check that book out! I feel so behind, I don’t know what most of those things are that you mentioned. I did order several things from the mailbox. I hope it will make me feel like I can do it!!
If you are just getting started. Find a good curriculum that lays out the daily lessons for you. That way you will have something to follow and you will keep your child on track for what they should know for their grade level.
You need to look at the dept of education website for the state you live in. That will give you the exact legal requirements you need to follow. Your local library can give you contact info for the local homeschool organization (if there is one). I have a list of websites I use for free education resources including curriculum and games, as well as materials for myself. I would be more than happy to email that list to you (please provide your email for me).
Boy, I wish they had something similar for high school.
Thanks….Hip2Save! I got 4 books to help with our math this year….only $7! What an awesome deal! 🙂
I have been trying for the last hour and can’t get the site up. 🙁
Wow, thanks so much for posting this!! I’m a 1st Grade teacher and this was such a wonderful deal!! I got 8 books for $20. If I had gone to a teacher supply store and bought these books I would have paid over $100. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Just got 7 books for $26! Original prices totaled $101! Awesome!!!!!
The code JULR shows up in my cart as being able to be used to get $10 off $50 but it isn’t being taken off the total at the bottom. I tried NOVR and the same thing. Any suggestions?
Nevermind. I deleted and reapplied the code and all of a sudden it worked. Thanks so much for this great deal!
I kinda sort of blushed when you edited me in xD Big fan and follower!!! Congrats to all of you that saved!!!
wow got it to work and scored 9 books (ranging from toddler/ pre prek to 5th/6th grade math skill sets) for $21!!!! wow! my son who is the older one loves to play teacher to my younger one who is 2. they play school almost every day! this will help so much! thank u thank you!
I get mailbox deals emailed to me all the time, and this is the best one BY FAR! I got 5 books to use in my kindergarten classroom for $17.50 🙂
Ordered 8 books for the kids for less than $20. One at Staples would have cost $10+! Thanks so much for posting this deal!
Thanks for this deal info! Was able to score some fun supplemental workbooks for my two homeschooled kiddos. Great prices. Looking forward to seeing the material.
I was able to score this deal yet this morning (July 19th)! I got 3 books that would normally total $60 for $9.10! I homeschool my 10 year old son and these will make great supplemental material. I previously taught in the public school system and this is one of my favorite publishers. Thanks so much! And to the mom considering homeschooling–you CAN do it–no one cares more about your child and their education then you do. I agree with the post about starting at the library–it is a great source.
NOVR coupon still works! (11-27-13) AWESOME!
