Office Depot
By NJ Teacher

Clip to ScrapBook   
I was in Office Depot today. They had the 24 count Crayola crayons for nine cents (limit 5) and plastic pencil boxes for 19 cents (limit 5). I started out getting five, and when the manager and cashier learned I was a teacher
(I also used my Office Depot Teacher card), they didn't put any limits on me. The funny thing is with all the bargains I have picked up down here in South Florida, I had to buy a cardboard box in Walmart to mail this stuff home. It would exceed the weight limit on the plane and my suitcase room! I was excited about the pencil boxes because when I'm at home and I go to Office Depot,
even on the first day of the sale, they never have the kind that's on sale available. The cheapest I think I ever find similar ones are 2-3 for a dollar at Target later in the season. Office Depot is actually headquartered in the town I am staying in, and there is a high senior citizen population, so there probably isn't as much demand for school supplies, and they are happy to sell them.:s)
