I was in Walmart last night and decided to check out their children's workbooks. Summer is quickly approaching and I like to keep my kids' brains active with workbooks and other activities. I saw a book that was marked less than the others so I grabbed it and another of the same brand and went to check the price. The books were normally $7.95. The one was marked $3.86 and the other wasn't marked at all. They both rang up for $2!! I went back to the books and collected some more of the same brand and also a couple of a different brand. I went back to the price scanner to find out that the same brand of books were now telling me to "see sales associate" while the different brand were ringing up full price. I returned the full price books to the book department and took my stack of books that said "see sales associate" to a register and asked the cashier to price check them. They all rang up with deep discounts! I had 2 with a regular price of $14.95 that rang up $4 and one with a regular price of $9.95 that rang up $4.50. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason for the discount amount but they were all marked down plenty enough for me to buy them! There were plenty left and I don't expect them to fly off the shelf because they are not marked.
I took some photos to help you in your search.
These are the books that I bought. There were other other selections available but I didn't check their prices. It seemed that all of this brand are marked down. The "Total Basic Skills" books were $14.95 and rang up $4. The "Everything for Early Learning" books were $7.95 and rang up $2!! The other book (Alphabet) was $9.95 and rang up $4.50.
Here is the back of one of the books. You can see the publisher and the regular pricde.
