I was at the homeschool convention over the weekend. Aside from the sessions, there's the exhibit hall. Here you can find various schools, suppliers, and organizations with information, free stuff (pens, candy, stickers, etc.), and things to sell.
My favourite part, though, is the lovely variety of bookstalls. There are new books and used books, a huge assortment of children's books (naturally) and a mishmash of other books. There are also games and toys and whatever people may want.
And, in an amazing display of self-control I didn't buy any books this year!
Trust me, it was pretty much a miracle that I didn't succumb to temptation, but I know the state of my finances and that buying books wasn't really in the budget right now.
I did buy a set of trivia cards for the kids, and a t-shirt and some soap from the kids, but that was it for this year.
After all, there's always next year!
