The kids will be going back to school this week (if they aren’t already) — are you done with the school supply shopping?
We just finished this weekend ~ and let me say that we DID do some of it at the $.99 store. Amidst MANY of the deals at Staples, OfficeMax and stores such as Target, Fry’s & Safeway, the $.99 store had some pretty good deals we took advantage of.
We rounded out SIX of our most fabulous finds.
Pick up a Websters Easy to Read Format Dictionary or Roget’s Thesaurus for just $.99.
Sure, you can scout the school sales, go drive to Staples or Target and get Mechanical Pencils, but in MOST cases they are $.99. Perhaps $.50 with a coupon, but that requires you BUY the paper, thus adding to the cost of the pencils themselves.
Pick up the Zebra 6 pk of Mechanical Pencils ALL the time at the $.99 store. Great deal. We got them this year.
PVC Free Hi-Liters are in a multipack and just $.99 st the $.99 store. Makes it easy to add to the school supply list when you need to pick them up anyways.
Readi-Board is one of those items that will come in handy mid-school year for projects. We have bought it. In fact we have 3 at home in the office, JUST for that reason ~ presentations and school projects. Next time your child say they have a project due pronto, head to the $.99 store, they keep this in stock all year long.
Don’t bother waiting for a sale on Glue Sticks, pick up the 6 pk at the $.99 store all year long.
The $.99 store has a Twin Pack of School Glue for $.99 ALL year long as well. Forget waiting for sales on Elmer’s – unless you are REALLY brand loyal, glue is glue. It all sticks the same.
What do you get, if anything, from the $.99 store for the Kids Back to School Bags?
Just remember that what WE may find useful you may not ~ and that is A-OK! :) We have kids in school just like you, and we’re looking not only to stretch our buck, but also to cut back on the time it takes to find sales and drive – sometimes the $.99 store can be a lifesaver for us.
