| Additional Publisher Comments: |
Bulk orders can be discounted further. The cards are a simple toolbox that quickly engage students and are very flexible. Students and teachers frequently comment on how easy they are to use and that the teens like them. The cards are also endorsed by the Institute of Consumer Financial Education and are recommended in Canada for bankruptcy educators. |
