    Does anyone have a “stock up” price list for school supplies? I don’t have kids yet but I buy for “stuff the bus” in my community and I know last year I probably overpaid. I’d love for my money to go farther this year.

    • Jessica (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Hey Anna! We actually have a post on school supplies “stock up” prices. It is linked at the very bottom of this post, in the blue box. Or, head here to read it! Hope this helps. 😀

    Got some great deals at Office Max this afternoon. I will be donating quite a few items that my kids do not use. I plan to shop every week with what is cheapest on sale. I am trying for a very frugal school year.

    Papermate pens .75 coupon did not work at Target or Walgreens

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Bummer! 🙁 Sorry to hear that!

    • Nicole

      The cashier pushed it through for me. I bought exactly what was on the coupons, right down to the exact picture, and it still didn’t automatically go, but she was great about using it anyway!

    Very frustrating… 4 different Walgreens did not have the B2S section set, so no Wexford highlighters for me YET. These highlighters are better than Bic and Sharpie in my opinion. I’m a teacher, so I will need lots to make up for all the kids who do not have supplies.

    I went to Walmart and the Papermate pens I believe it was 10 pens are .97 use the .75 off makes them .22. The glue was .50, I used $1.00 off 3 which made the .50 per every 3 purchased. Great deals!!!

  6. Jeanie !Markusson

    Most of the items I need are not on sale yet. I hope more sales will start next Sunday!

  7. Amber

    I think it’s still a bit early; I’m sure we will see more deals over the next few weeks!

    • CJ

      I stopped by my local walmart to see if they had any good deals & they were just in the process of unpacking & setting out school supplies. It was a mess of boxes & congested aisles so guess I’ll try back next week.

    I run a charity that donates school supplies locally. For those of you looking for a very frugal school year, start shopping in January. You can find holiday (Xmas and VD) 10 ct pencils and erasers at 90% off or $.10/pack. Wal-Mart has glue, crayons, rulers, etc for $.25/piece. in mid-August through beginning September, Walgreens discounts all their backpacks and other school items for 75-90%. Purchase a basic stockpile for the next year. You can also gift the VD pencils during your child’s VD school party. Lastly, check recycle sites. When I needed a binder for my son (I could not find one for under $10 in my area), I posted a wanted ad on such a site. Not only did the donor give us a binder, they generously donated pencils.

    What is the “6/4 ss” and how do I access them???

    • Dice

      I think it’s the Sunday’s newspaper coupons page?

    • Jennifer

      It’s the Smart Source insert from June 4th.

  10. Ashley

    I don’t have an Office Depot. Do you know if Walmart will price match the lower amount?

  11. MaryO

    Check the rulers at office Max. They are rough and give slivers!😩
