I just placed an order. Thank you!
Just an idea if you're looking at the list of books and see that you already have some of them like we do. Find your copy, pair it up with the cd and add the "extra" book to your gift closet!

Oh, dang, followed the SD page and missed the Free Ship code! Oh, well, I guess I should always check here first.... ;)

I'm afraid the free shipping code might have cancelled out the free audio books code :-(
I'm going to call customer service....

I haven't ordered because I'm curious about that too. Please let us know.

Got an answer on SD - the CDs will ship with the order regardless of the code, but customer service is saying the free shipping code is invalid (not sure why since it works).

I called CS and they were quite perplexed about the free shipping code too. She wanted to know how I heard about it. I told her a friend told me about the deal and also provided a free ship code, but I didn't know where she found out about it.

They said the CDs should ship. She said if they didn't call, and they would send them! We'll see.

Now I am worried that they will run out......

We did one of these grab bags a few years ago, and some of these oddball books turned into DS1's favorites, lol. That time, they did substitute a few of the titles (must have run out of stock), but it was no big deal. The CDs are a nice bonus!! BTW, shipping was only 3.95 for me, still a good deal.

Did anyone receive a confirmation email after ordering? I never received anything and that makes me nervous.

Also, since you received it media mail, I suppose I should be expecting them to arrive in my mailbox?

Thanks!

I never received a confirmation e-mail, so checked my credit card statement, and it was charged on 11/25, but I still haven't received it yet. Hopefully it will arrive today. If not, I'll be contacting customer service.

Finally got ours last night. DS1 tried to listen to a few of the CDs this afternoon, and they were all blank (supposedly had 3 tracks, but no sound). We'll try them in the DVD player to see if that's works, but they haven't worked in two CD players.

Anyone else have this issue?

They are definitely CDs, the first two tracks are empty and the third track has the story. Try that and see if it works!

I have to sayI am disappointed in the quality of the CD's. The first two tracks of each one play loud squealing static. I was hoping J could learn to put these in the CD player on his own; FFing through two tracks will make that harder. Plus, there's no tone to turn the page, which I think is pretty standard for kid's books on tape.

I called customer service and wasn't too satisfied. The woman said the two staticky tracks weren't a problem and had never heard of a book on tape that had a turn-the-page signal. She said I could pay to return them if I wasn't happy. Eventually I got her to give me a label for free shipping. I may keep them anyway, it was a good deal for the books alone, but I certainly won't order any more from Weekly Reader.

They aren't just cds, they're DVDs of the book. Helps kids figure out how to turn the pages.

Can't believe customer service didn't tell anyone!!
