OH yes they visit us too! Must be a busy person runs around visiting us all! I didn't do it, and someone else live here too on occasion! Not me loves to visit, and She did it or He didit! also , they just visit but the most consistant child I never see is nonone!
went to staples today and the sale don't start until tomorrow.. July 8... to get the teacher card all you have to do is go to Staples.com and hit reward card sign up there and they give you a number to print off and you bring it to the store with for the sale...
Mrs. Russell gets blamed for everything in our house, she was our neighbor,she's been dead for 3 years now. Did I see somewhere that K-Mart is having a 1 cent sale too???
Oh, oh, oh, I know, I know!!! Well, at least at our house it's the couch and our vehicle! Those two places are the local hang-outs for our pencils. You should see when we clean our vehicle--all of a sudden all these pencils show up under the seats! If they wanna hang out, fine, but then I wish they'd just go back where they belong!
Target also has lots of teaching supplies in the $1.00 bins. Yesterday we came home with flash cards for the U.S. states and the Presidents; as well as books for Science experiments and ocean animals. Everything will complement our plans for this coming year.
I went today. They actually had a thing where they pre packaged all the 1cent items so you could just go in, get that and be done. It included the max amount you could buy of each thing. It was 49 cents. It had 10 folders, 3 pencil sharpeners, 3 packages of pencils, 3 elmers glue, 3 pencil boxes, ummmmm, I can't think of what else was in there.
I just got home from Staples.....we had plenty of pencils and folders but needed the glue. I also picked up some of the pencil sharpeners as the kids love using those. Also hit Walmart today. Whenever they have to 24pks of Crayolas on sale I grab a TON of them. We go through several boxes a school year. My SIL is coming from Colombia this summer and I always send her home with several boxes for each my niece and nephew as I understand crayons are pretty pricey there. I was hoping to find a new bookcase but didn't have any luck. Well, that gives me an excuse to go yardsale-ing next weekend. I love to do that!!
wow, you both sound like you all got some good deals. the sad thing is there is no staples close by us. darn it..
I got the glue, even though we dont need it any more than we need a hole in our heads I got the good deal last year too and the year before haha, And I got two pencil holders cause one child already has one, no make that five? LOL! I boght all three pencil sharpeners cause then we have one for each back pack! And the pencils, I love staples! They only let you get one set per household or hubby was going to go back and get more of the pencils. I got ten folders because of our History Acording to ______ work in binders< I did not need binders, but the other classes will need folders too! So I figure 5 each should work! Then whatver else it was I got the max amount. I already got the pencil crayon things that have twist up and erasers for 50 cents the other day ... Our Wallys only has the pens for 50 cents for 10 -12> Paper mate even! and I picked up deviders for 53 cents a pack too. I always walk through the school supplies when I go so I will knwo when they go on sale again... Though I did find some cheapy ones in my back yard melted together yesterday! Lol What is at Target? I keep seeing that name in the posts, in the 1 $ stuff what are you finding?
My sister went to Staples today. Those pencil boxes are cool! I hope to get there before Wednesday. Lead me to the sales! Anywhere but Office Depot.
What a numskull I am!:? I was at Michael's today and Staples was next door. I forgot all about the sale. Patty
Thanks for the heads up! I'll have to try to get there, and Target is near Staples! Woo-hoo! I used to think we were infested with pencils, then we got a pencil sharpener that ds loves. Now they get sharpened into non-existence in no time. So never, never, never too many pencils!
