It’s that time again folks - Borders teacher appreciation week has begun. Extra discounts and goodies can be found at your local Borders bookstores.
Also, remember that Borders and Barnes & Noble have changed their educational discount program. So if you haven’t already, you’re going to have to renew your card even if it’s not expired. Bring with you your teacher ID or PSA, or whatever other “proof” you have of being a homeschooler so you can get your new card.
Happy shopping!
