How do you get the discount? Do you bring a faculty ID to show that you're a teacher? Riki In a message dated 3/18/2008 1:56:40 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
You can't place an order :( It's only on anything in stock in a Border's store :( I tried one year to special order a few books and they wouldn't give me the discount on those. However, if you've been thinking of some DVDs or CDs or books even if they are just for your own pleasure, you also get the discount :) Annette Annette Kujawski Taylor, Ph.D. Professor of Psychology University of San Diego 5998 Alcala Park San Diego, CA 92110 619-260-4006 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---- Original message ---- >Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 12:10:44 EDT >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: [tips] Borders educators' discount days coming >To: "Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS)" <tips@acsun.frostburg.edu> > > How does one get the discount when placing an order? > > Riki Koenigsberg > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > In a message dated 3/18/2008 12:07:04 P.M.
