Everyone needs a little time away from the grind – and that’s what we’ll be doing over the weeekend. We’ll be taking some time with my lovely wife and daughter to have some good times together and to create some memories.

I also wanted to give you a heads up – it is getting close to the time when school supplies will be going on sale. This is a wonderful time to get tutoring supplies for much less than you normally would. Some good places to check include the big box stores like Wal-Mart and Target, as well as the office supply stores (Office Depot, Staples). If you like to do your shopping online then you’ll want to check out the following links.

Also don’t forget about coupons. I think one year we ended up getting much of our paper supplies for free… which is always a good thing.

Hope you have a wonderful week and we should get back to our regular posting schedule next week.

Some deals that can save you money

One of the things we want to do is make you aware of deals that may help you in your tutoring business. One of our recommendations is to buy school supplies right after the big rush ends. I think last year we ended up getting notebooks for around 10 cents each. We found a couple of deals today that could help you – one thing they are good only for today. You also may want to bookmark both of these sites because they are always offering new deals and they change every day.

In our tutoring program we talk about offering incentives – this helps to make the tutoring fun (helps get the kids on board) and gives them incentive to listen to you and do the work they are supposed to be doing. Yugster today is offering 2500 baseball cards for about 30 bucks. That’s pennies a card and would make a great incentive especially for sports fans. You can find more details here - http://www.yugster.com/default.aspx

We don’t purchase much paint so this may not even be a good deal, but you get packs of crayon, chalk and paint for 5 bucks. That offer is from dail steals. http://toys.dailysteals.com/

Hope that helps you save a bit of money and we hope you have a wonderful day!
