Many homeschool groups have book fairs and other organizational event that are a great place to pick up slightly used books and materials. Don’t forget to mention to your family and friends that high on your list of needs are homeschool materials and resources.

Don’t rule any source for you out! Be creative, and be frugal and you can put together a homeschool material and resource center that will benefit everyone.
