Staples is beginning their Back to School loss leaders. You can get two packs of 8 pencils for one cent each. You can also get 10 paper folders for ten cents. You can buy 4 1-inch floppy three ring binders (no pockets) for a quarter apiece. You can't buy more than the established amount in one trip, though you could make multiple trips or split the family up if you need more.
Toys R Us is having an excellent sale on Crayola this week. Now their prices are usually pretty marked up so you wouldn't buy school supplies their regularly. They have buy one get one free on crayons - a 64-color box is $4.19, much too high normally, but $2.10 a box is a fine price. Someone else is running the boxes four $2.00 but that's not that much better. The real killer deal is colored pencils - they are buy one box get TWO boxes free. You can get a 12-pack for $2.50 or a 24-pack for $4.50. So you can get three 24-packs for $4.50. You can't beat that for name brand.
Finally, Big Lots has boxes of Fruit Loops for $1.00. They are "Fruit Loop Smoothie" - hey have an extra yogurt flavored loops. They are brand name and quite yummy. You can't beat a dollar a box. They also have Yogos in several flavors for $1.00 a box, Diego fruit snacks for a dollar, and name brand Pop Tarts in unusual flavors (like chocolate mint and island berry) for $1.20 for a small box and $2.00 for a large box. That's about the same as a store brand on sale at the grocery store, and the pop tarts brand has a much better flavor in the pastry.
Love, Rach
