Oh ok. Thanks for the responses. Yes, it's elementary school. I know zippies are very useful around the house, I use them for holding game pieces and art supplies, so I guess the teachers prolly do that too. We are meeting the teacher tomorrow so I will ask.

Appreciate your list Rosie!!!

Question: Anyone know about any deals on staples? I go through so many of them myself and I figured they could be classified as school supplies.

I haven't seen these go on sale at all. You might want to check the dollar store. Or, follow the clearance sales once they start up.

Wow, that is quite an impressive list! :-) Very handy! Thank you for putting that out there.

I'm curious to know, as far as adding in new items, formatting, etc., are you doing all that manually, or do you use any macros or other automation?

There are a few OfficeMax sale items, good through tomorrow Saturday 8/16/08, that I didn't see on your list. They are on the front page of this week's OfficeMax weekly ad.

To save you some time (since you've already been so good as to set up and maintain that master list!), I put them in the same format from your list so you can just copy and paste.

Binders
$0.30 - OfficeMax - 8/10-8/16 (1" and 1.5" poly)(Limit 10 per customer)

Folders, 2-pocket
$0.01 - OfficeMax - 8/10-8/16 (Limit 10 per customer)

Rulers
$0.01 - OfficeMax - 8/10-8/16 (12" wood) (Limit 3 per customer)

There is also some Officemax brand filler paper for .15 per package, but it doesn't say number of sheets, just limit 4 per customer, and the standard "While supplies last. *In-store only."

Thanks again for the handy list! :-)

Just wanted to say THANK YOU so very much... it's wonderful to have all of the prices in one place with comparision prices to previous weeks. I've shared this list with all the moms I know and posted it on my blog, too.

Thanks for all of your hard work, it is definitely appreciated!

I know I'm behind on posting this weeks sales. I'll try to get them up by the end of the day. I ended up getting sick this weekend, so I've kind of been taking it easy.
