It’s summer… That means it’s time to start thinking about school supplies for next year.

The last two years running I ordered school supplies from someone else. But this year, depending on the school lists, I will be going with EZSchoolSupplies.com.

The good people sent me a sample pack of supplies:

After having handled them, they are good quality products from known brands.

The company is headquartered in Denver, CO and have been around for five years. They provide their services to thousands of schools and parents across the country. Mothers love them because they can order online the exact school supplies requested by the school or the teachers for each specific grade level and have them delivered right to their home.

They offer over 26,000 brand name items on their website and can deliver from 32 distribution centers strategically located throughout the U.S. Us moms no longer have to go on the dreaded scavenger-hunt to four different stores to search for their school supplies.

You can purchase individually, but for the schools that have signed up with them, they give them back a 10% donation to assist them with their fund raising efforts.

And to make it even sweeter for you to do so, EZSchoolSupplies.com has even given me a promotional code to give YOU 10% off.

If this entry gets pushed off the page, you can still find it in my sidebar as well.

So take this offer, and make your shopping for school supplies easier this year!

Note: This is NOT a product review… I haven’t actually used the site. However, they were willing to give my readers 25% off – so I’m posting about it in – in case it meets a need for one of you lovely people.

From their email to me:

Despite economic concerns and rising gasoline prices, 70% of U.S. families intend to travel this summer, according to a new survey sponsored by ADlytics. However, shifts in demographics and lifestyles have broadened our definition of “family” and nuclear family travel is no longer the norm.According to the 2006 Statistics for the Travel & Tourism Industry, 43% of weekend trips are taken by couples without their children. In addition, children are now more likely to travel with family members other than their parents:

* 20% of grandparents have been on a trip with their grandchildren in the past year and,
* 15% of singles have been on a vacation with their nieces, nephews or other young relatives in the past year
