The Albuquerque area has many stores that you may find helpful for buying
educational material: books, worksheets, software, teacher record books,
and other teaching supplies.
Many even offer discounts to teachers (including homeschoolers), so ask before you pay!
Using recommendations from our members, we have compiled a list of local stores.

 General advice.
Besides local stores, there are also many internet sites and catalogs
that offer competitive prices for teaching supplies and curriculum.
See our list of
catalogs and
curriculum suggestions
for more information.
However, sometimes nothing can beat looking at something in real life!
Before spending an arm and a leg for curriculum,
you might also want to see if you can find used materials on our
Swap meet forum
or ask about the occasional curriculum nights
for homeschooling parents.
