School Supplies!


I am linking with Fun in Room 4B on Fabulous Find Friday. 

It's July. Which means that school supplies start coming out and we all start stocking up. Well, I hope I am not the only teacher that might go a little crazy when it comes to buying it.

I have always had an (unhealthy and expensive) obsession with school supplies. In college I worked at the BYU Bookstore in the school supplies section. I loved it. Eventually I got to help pick out supplies and order them. And got free samples. It is hard to leave a gig like that.

So this was some of my winnings from tonight.


This is all from OfficeMax. For $1 each, I got 2 binders, 2 100 sheet spirals, 12-ct box of Sharpies, white out, 2 of the 2pk of mechanical pencils with replacement lead, 2 of the 5pk of dry erase markers and a cube of post it notes. The 4pk of glue was $.25 each and the 10 folders were free. 

I have to say I am just happy with all of that. I am tempted to go back and repeat tomorrow. At least for the Sharpies and dry erase markers. 

Then I stopped at Target for the dollar bins. I cannot resist any new sticky notes. I probably have at least 25 packs of them at home right now. Even more stored in my classroom. 


Then I found my perfect planner for the year. I absolutely loved it!

Head over to OfficeMax and get some cheap school supplies. Take your husband/significant other/friend, check out twice and double your winnings!

  5. If you show your teacher ID at Office Max they will let you buy up to 20 of the items on sale instead of just the limit of 2 as advertised. :)
