BACK TO SCHOOL SALES

Posted by Dani |

In the past, Staples, Office Depot & Office Max have run school supply sales. Each week they usually have one item that is on sale for $0.01. In the past $0.01 items have included: 10ct pencils, slider school boxes, rulers, white glue, folders (w/ & w/out prongs), mini .5oz Purell, etc.

Staples officially begins their penny sales on Sunday 8/2. Not sure about the others.

So here's a rundown of the back to school sales (at least what I've found). Some of it's a little late, but a lot of it will be updated this weekend when the real sales start -- keep in mind we start earlier down here in Florida than most of the rest of the country, so the bigger sales won't go into effect until August.
