That's awesome you got the SL coupon! I am going to use it for a Science Lab. I've taken all the sciences I mentioned in the previous post, but haven't taken a lab. I am wondering if the following is too much to ask - on the SL website, it mentioned to purchase extra materials in addition to the kit.
I am thinking of purchasing a "homemade" kit or make one myself, and then do the experiments/lab tests as required. I would like to "share" your lab kit or if at all possible, share your findings. I don't need your write-ups, just the numbers and a screenshot of your SL Science Lab Kit#. This should save me a bit of cash for the labs. Below is what SL website says:
This course utilizes custom lab kit from eScience Labs which costs $79 plus shipping. Click the kit code [kit1585] to purchase from eScience Labs. Purchasing the correct kit is essential to your success in the course.
NOTE - This course is now utilizing an updated kit from eScienceLabs, so please be sure to have purchased kit1585 to ensure proper alignment between your lab materials and the course content.
In order to save money for our students we have worked with ESL to eliminate certain household items which added to a much higher cost of standard kit. You will need to furnish the items below to complete the labs. Each item can be found at most grocery stores or in your pantry. Download the list.

Aluminum foil
4 gelatin packets (unflavored)
Bowl
2 resealable bags (clear)
Household items that can represent cell structures (please see the course for examples)

Quarter
Scissors
Spinach leaves (fresh)
