Another reason to shop at Staples – they are giving school supplies away for a penny, which is free in my book. Yesterday Hubby returned from Staples with 10 packets of binder paper with 120 sheets each. The bill? $.10.
Teachers can get up to 25 packets for a penny each. Non-teachers are limited to 5 of the penny-freebies (not sure how Hubby talked his way into 10).
To find what’s free at your local Staples, visit their homepage and look for their weekly ad, often in the supper right corner. The penny paper deal ends Wednesday, Aug. 5.

I do not want my name attached to any comment I make but your form says, “name required.” Even though my email will not be published, my name was on my last comment. Until this policy is changed, I will not comment. Thanks.

Ron,
Why not choose a pen name that you feel comfortable commenting with?

If it says “Name (required)”, it would seem that you wanted the name. Please delete all comments with my name.

I buy lots of the paper for a penny as well as spiral notebooks for 75 cents and ship it in the one price boxes from PO to the troops……if anyone else supports the troops, this is THE time to stock up so you can ship things all year. The troops have adopted different villages, schools and orphanages and need school supplies.

That was a great idea! I’m a teacher now – one year before I retire, but next year, when I scarf up all those sales at Staples and Office Depot, I’ll remember the troops!
