Composition Notebooks

Earlier tonight I stopped by Staples to take advantage of the composition notebooks for $.10.  I was hoping to pick up the maximum number allowed for teachers.  This week the composition notebooks were a limit of 20 (for teachers) for $.10 each with a $5 minimum purchase.  I was able to get the remaining 12 composition notebooks at the store I visited and then paired it with a $5 gift card to use on next week's deals.

Here's the status of my husband's classroom list:

• Pencils - 200 purchased for $.25
• Composition Notebooks - 25 purchased for $3.60 (12 from Walgreen's for $2.40 and 12 from Staples for $1.20)
• Thin Markers - hoping for a good deal this week or next
• Colored Pencils - 10 for $2.50 from Target
• Pencil Sharpeners - hoping for a good deal this week or next (I did get a battery operated one for free after rebate from Staples)
• Folders - 25 for $.25 total from Staples
• Scissors - 12 for $7.96 from Ikea
• Glue (sticks and bottles) - 25 bottles for $.25 (we decided to skip the glue sticks this year unless there is a really good deal this week or next)
• Small Post-Its - 12 for free after rebate from Staples
• Kleenexes - hoping for a good deal this week or next
• Hand Sanitizer - hoping for a good deal this week or next

Total spent - $14.81
