Back to school supply sales have officially started!


Getting a head start is one of the best ways to save money on back to school shopping. Now is a great time to started on it. It is great to be able to pick up a few things here and there and get killer deals on them, making the whole back to school shopping craziness a little bit more thrifty! Even if you don't have kids and have to do the back to school shopping, these prices make it easy to pick up a few items and donate to kiddos in need!

Here's the best deals I see around the stores:

Target:
Rose Art 2 pack glue sticks $.20!
Rose Art 10 pack markers $.50
Rose Art 12 pack colored pencils $.50


Walmart:
24 pack Crayola crayons $.25
11 pack Cra-Z-Art washable markers $.70
Elmer's Glue Bottles $.25

Crayola 10 pack broad line markers $1
Crayola 10 pack fine line markers $1


Staples: (good through Wednesday only)
All of these deals require a minimum $5 purchase.
2-Pocket Folders with Fasteners $.01 - Limit of 10
8 Pack #2 Yellow Pencils $.01 - Limit of 2
1 Ream Staples Multi-Purpose Paper $4.99 - $4.98 Staples Easy Rebate = .01 - Limit of 2
- great coupon printing paper

There are also some good deals on backpacks right now at the Children's Place they are $10. I also hear that Gap has them on sale.

My kiddos aren't quite entering school yet, though my oldest is in preschool so we have a small shopping list. Now is the time to stock up on these great deals if you have little ones at home that like to do arts and crafts. You cannot beat these prices any other time of the year, except for the rare after back to school shopping clearances and these are really hit and miss on what is available.

If you know of any great deals on back to school stuff, let me know - I'd love to keep this list updated throughout the back to school shopping season!
