Carson Dellosa currently has a 20% off promo code at the top of the page, the best choice when you are buying multiple full price items and want a straightforward percent off across your cart. The code takes 20% off your purchase on the website and is the page lead; it is most useful on standard priced classroom supplies and larger orders. The warehouse and clearance sales can give bigger savings but only on selected items.
Small orders under $35: If your cart totals less than $35, you will not reach the free shipping thresholds or the free rolled board threshold. Use the 20% off code to lower your total. For example, on a $30 order, the 20% off code reduces the price to $24, a saving of $6. The newsletter 20% first order is only for new signups, so if you are a new customer consider that as an alternative to the code only if that offer requires signup at the site and you want the first order discount instead of the top page code.
Orders between $35 and $39.99: Free shipping at $35 applies, so hitting $35 gives you shipping savings even before using a code. Use the 20% off code if you want a lower total after free shipping. For example, on a $36 order, free shipping applies and the 20% off code reduces the price to $28.80, a saving of $7.20 plus you keep the free shipping.
Orders between $40 and $49.99: Free shipping at $40 also applies. The 20% off code remains the simple way to reduce your total. If the items you want are in the warehouse sale or clearance selection, compare the sale price to the price after 20% off on the same items because sale discounts are applied to selected products only.
Orders $50 and over: A free 36' black rolled board is available with orders of $50 or more while stock lasts. If you need that free board, place at least $50 in your cart and then apply the 20% off code to lower the final charge. For example, a $60 order becomes $48 after 20% off, you pay $48 and receive the free rolled board.
When you see selected sale items marked up to 95% or up to 90% off: Those discounts apply only to selected products and can beat the 20% off code for those particular items. For instance, a $100 item discounted 90% in clearance becomes $10, saving $90, which is a bigger reduction than 20% off that same original price. If the items you want are in those sale selections, buy them at the sale price; use the 20% code for everything else.
When choosing, compare the final totals. For general mixed carts of regular price items, use the 20% off promo code at the top of the page. If the exact items you want are in the warehouse or clearance sale, take the sale price for those items because up to 90% or 95% off will usually save more. The free rolled board applies on orders of $50 or more; free shipping applies at $35 or $40 depending on which threshold you reach. If you are a first time customer and prepared to sign up, the newsletter 20% first order may replace the site code for that first purchase.
