I'm heading over to Staples in the morning to pick up 2 of the $15 chairs they have. We snagged two free school desks on Friday (Catholic school across the street was getting rid of stuff), and so we are splurging on new chairs for the two older kids who will be using the desks.

You got some great deals!!!

I wish we still had a Staples here.

It's really hard for people in my area to get excited about school supply sales when most of our schools do not start until right after Labor Day.

I keep trying to tell them "Shop now for the stuff you know you'll need, don't wait for that first week of school. Those shelves are going to be picked over by September."

I so wish we started back after Labor Day! We start back in two weeks!!!!!!!!!! Ugh!

Every time I want to Wal Mart for the 5 cent notebooks, they were out. I finally got them at Target for 10 cents each. I got tired of driving across town.

But, since I work in a school, Staples let's me have 25 each of their 1 cent deals and 5 cent deals! Whoopee! Yippee Skippy!
