Cheap school supplies? (Charlotte: sales, schools, pricing)

[devoneri]

Anyone got any tips on somewhere I can go & get this stuff for my kid that hasn't been hit like a landmine went off inside & vaporized everything on the B2S shelves?

We're pretty much traveling all over Charlotte today already anyways so one more stop can't hurt...

Staples have been very aggressive with their back to school pricing.

Last week 150 notebook paper for 15 cents

And they are doing similar sales this week of items under a dollar multi packs.

Here a store locater map I pulled up for you.
Staples: Maps: Search Results

That was easy.

I'll preface by saying that I don't have kids. I read something last week that sounded like a good idea. It was a service, I'm not sure if it was offered by the schools or a private company, but you pretty much send in a check to the school and everything that your kid needs is waiting for them on the first day of school.

Sounds like a good idea without all of the hassle!!!

Personally, the Dollar Store works for me.

Target had (as of Friday evening) 70 page spiral notebooks for $1.00 each.

I think the great deals are over since school starts tomorrow.

Now it's time for halloween costumes and christmas music!!
