3rd Grade School Supplies
Why did this year of school supply shopping bring so much STRESS!!!! Initially, I wanted to shop online to save time and what I thought was money. The school makes it easy by providing the school supply list for each grade. I took the list and went online to really do some comparison shopping. I started with STAPLES and even without a few of the items such as 2 boxes of tissues and plastic folders, my total was $66.00. Next up was AMAZON and some of the items were impossible to find individually there were a lot of items offered in bulk such as the marble composition books, spiral notebooks, plastic folders, tissues and disinfecting wipes for a total of $55(with items missing). Lastly, I went to TARGET (with the intention of picking up at the local store) and that was a quick peruse of the site because a lot of the items were SOLD OUT!

I never bothered to even total because I am such a ONE STOP SHOPPER! On Tuesday, me and my 3rd grader headed to FIVE BELOW and managed to find the majority of her items. Unfortunately, I had to go next door to STAPLES to pick up some items missing at FIVE BELOW.
Two stores later and would you believe I still need to go to TARGET for an orange plastic folder, tissues, and disinfecting wipes as I know they are priced better than STAPLES and there is a chance I can use my CARTWHEEL!
Last year I used these labels to personalize the supplies.
