Sometimes it helps to have a little direction instead of the trial and error of investigating groups only to find they are not what you were looking for. If you meander around Facebook regularly, you may find these groups are worthwhile checking into to swap homeschooling books and materials. Some of the groups offer the materials free, just for the cost of shipping.
This is something we investigated as a possibility for Schoolin’ Swag, and just decided it was not a direction we wanted to go in. So here is some help if you are looking to change things up in an economical way (aren’t we all?):
