Is this the best deal available for 3 tinge binders? I’m putting together 70 back to school kits for refuges and I need 3-ring binders for each of the kits. I also need calculators for them too if anyone knows of a good deal on those id be very greatful!
3-ring binders π
$1 for binders is pretty good. After school I did find like 3-4 packs of binders for $2 last year at Walmart but that’s just by luck. Target & Walmart both will discount school supplies in the next 3 weeks. I just stocked up for our Christmas shoe boxes & working on soldier stockings!
Last year, Walgreens had colored three ring binders for .25. As for inexpensive calculators, try checking Target’s dollar spot and dollar stores. I feel like I’ve seen them there.
If you don’t have either of these stores locally, will Staples or Wal-Mart match the sale? Thanks!
Most Walmart stores will NOT price match as of August 1st! π© little signs at Customer service
check your walmart — I did a price match at walmart for the last deal that Collin posted for office max / office depot, because my 2 stores were sold out. I had the flier with me. They didn’t bat an eye when I showed them, just adjusted down — I am in Florida
If you aren’t aware, you only have to buy items that total $5 REGULAR PRICE to get the penny deals. Even if it isn’t $5 worth with sale prices. They often have $1 items that usually cost over $5, so one of those would work! π
Just an fyi it is currently teacher appreciation days so teachers get an extra 25% off with the coupon they have in store. I was able to use it to bring my total down to 3.82! And bonus got a reusable shopping bag!
Yes, I did this as well! PLUS I got a 20% off coupon/card valid for the next few months (and reusable!)
Yepper! I felt the need to share my HIP knowledge with another teacher in the store because it wasn’t well advertised where I was at π .19 crayola markers heck yeah!
FYI my walmart let me match the Crayola markers for 25 cents and I asked the manager if I could get a class set (20) and he said no problem. Best deal of Back to School yet!!
Thanks Stefanie! That’s very useful information to know. π
YMMV on this one! My store requires the $5 purchase even though the register will ring up the .01 deals without it. The cashiers won’t let you purchase it without spending $5.
i tried buying $5 gift card for penny deals , but cashier said i have to buy some product worth $ 5. they cannoyt give penny deals if u buy $5 gift card.
I went today got
3- Crayola Markers
3- Ticonderoga Pencils
3- Glues
3- Bic Pens
3- Pack of Erasers
3- Composition Notebooks
2-Poly Envelopes
I paid $5.67 after tax I was so happy they had everything in stock π
what time were you there?
about 11am they had tons in both Office Depot In my area.
Awesome! Such a great score! Thanks for sharing!
And if you bring in an old binder then you get $2 off a new one, which makes the $1 dollar ones free or, if you find clearance ones, those made for $0.41 cent nice binders for me (reg. 9.99!). Plus the teacher discount!!
I didn’t know about the old binder. Thanks!
We went today. I plan on donating many of the supplies we have got from these deals.
So awesome Megan! Thanks for sharing!
Are there any online deals? We live 2 hrs away from any of these stores.π
Thank you for posting these deals! I called Office Deport yesterday afternoon and the penny items as well as other sales items were gone. I suspected that might be the case as last week at 10 a.m. there were 6 people in line ahead of me before the store opened. I went to Walmart today and they gladly price matched for me – 3 bottles of glues, 3 composition notebooks, and 3 packs of markers for me with no problems at all (0.81 for all). Thanks again for all you do.
I went today and was able to get 3 composition books for .01& 3 packs of the pencils for 1.00.2 packs of notebook paper for 1.00each and 1 pack of pens for .25 cents.I also went to walmart to price match all i found qas the glue&markers.Since my office depot was out of those.Success i’m happy.Thanks again.Looking forward to next week.I paid 5.24 at office depot.My hubby got some food at walmart &i got my school supply price match for like 80 some cents.
So how long does this sale last
The sale ends on Saturday, August 6. Their sales run Sunday – Saturday
Is the penny deal only in store as I am trying to buy online and it won’t adjust the price?
