Are Back-to-School Sales the Best Time to Stock Up on Office Supplies?

In summary, back-to-school sales are starting and it's a good idea to stock up on office supplies for your home office. It's recommended to scan the circulars each week and only buy items that are on sale to save money in the long run. Waiting a few days after school starts may also yield better deals. Some items to look out for in the recent circulars include 24-pack glue sticks for $1.99 at OfficeMax and free Sharp scientific calculators at Office Depot after mail-in rebate. Staples also had a 1 cent sale this week with deals on folders, pencil sharpeners, and binders.

All you folks with school-age kids are surely aware of this already, but I wanted to make sure others kept this in mind...

Back-to-School sales are starting!
Stock up now on office supplies for your PC office!​

Don't buy everything at once. Scan the circulars each week and only get what's on sale that week. It'll save you money in the long run.
 
Good Advice!

I usually try to hold off till a few days after school starts. Thats when I have gotten the best deals at walmart.

Last year I was watching the sales to stock up for DD's supplies for this fall. The sales were not nearly as good as previous years.
 
Thanks for the reminder, Ann. Last year I got binders (to cut up for lap boards) for 60 cents each (so only 30 cents a lap board) and pens for super cheap, too. They've lasted me all year.

I just started making a list of the things I need to replenish since we're starting a new season.

Staples just had their 1 cent sale this week. I got 2-pocket folders for host packets for A PENNY each!! Pencil sharpeners for a penny, and the flexible 3-ring binders (1/2" & 1") - three for 99cents!! There was a limit of 10 folders per customer, but our cashier let my son by 10, I got 10 with my main order, then we did another transaction for the last 10 ...so I got 30 folders for .30 cents. WOOHOO!!
I LOVE GREAT SALES!! (Like the $200 suit I just got at JCPenny for $28!!!! Conference here I come!!)
