I'm new to BTS shopping. Are these deals really not good? I was going to buy this week but I'll hold out if things will get better! Thanks!

I thought the spiral notebooks were .05 at Meijer's last year. Maybe I am dreaming. I am positive they were .05 at Walmart last year. I think I will wait. Here in IL, this is the first year that we are getting the BTS 'tax free" week sometime in August. Possibly the retailers around here are waiting for that week for better sales.

I don't think they are good but I just need supplies for preschool. Last year they had a back specials where you could get the character back packs free with $10 kelloggs purchase. And also another deal where you b1g1 for $1. Last year Meijer had things on sale longer than a week but advertised different ones weekly.
The only ones this week that I thought were good was the glue sticks, note books and pencil cases. The note books are not that great since they have meijer printed on them.

I got these today...they were marked $2.79 but rang up at $1, which is close enough for me! I got both the classic and bold colors, and both the broad and fine tips.
