I often shop at Wal-Mart for our back-to-school supplies, but this year I’m watching the sales on Amazon like a hawk! We have an Amazon Prime account and I order as many things as possible from Amazon simply because they are shipped to my door for free.
(Yes, I realize it’s not “free” because I paid for the yearly membership. 😉 )
If you’re interested in Amazon Prime, they offer a free 30-day trial.
Our school is getting ready to kick into high gear since we’re doing a more year-round school this year, so I’ve been a busy bee getting our supplies in order.
My Favorite School Supplies
I’ve ordered a couple of shipments from Amazon already for the coming school year. Here’s what I purchased:
Ticonderoga Pencils – 30 count $4.88 $2.99
Ticonderoga Pencils are the best. Period. I’ve tried them all and they either break, don’t sharpen well, or have awful erasers. These are the only ones I buy!
***This is an Add-On Item and ships free with Amazon Prime orders of $25 or more AND is eligible for free shipping for qualifying orders over $35.
Construction Paper – 11 colors; 300 sheets $10.99 $9.25
We use construction paper daily – lap books, fun projects, homemade books, cards for family. I ordered two of these.
Expo Dry Erase Markers – 12 count $21.99 $10.16
You would not believe the dry erase markers we go through. It’s ridiculous!
Sharpie Highlighters – 8 count $12.49 $6.99
I love this style because they’re clickable.
Elmer’s Washable Glue Sticks – 4-pack $3.65 $1.60
***This is an Add-On Item and ships free with Amazon Prime orders of $25 or more AND is eligible for free shipping for qualifying orders over $35.
Post-It Flags Value Pack – 100-count $4.99 $1.99
I use these Post-It Flags almost daily! I use them as bookmarks, my daughter marks her violin music, I use them in my teacher’s manuals, and more.

So tell me: Do you shop Amazon often? Wal-Mart? Where do you find the best deals? And what are your favorite things to buy? 🙂

Costco! Years ago hubby bought a huge pack of Ticonderoga pencils for about $10. I also have gotten dry erase markers, a laminator, magnetic dry erase board, and many other items there for way less money than anywhere else. 🙂
Another vote for Costco!! It must be THE place to shop! 🙂
I don’t ever shop at Walmart but I love Costco and Amazon! If I can’t find it on sale at Amazon, I always go to Costco. Their construction paper pack lasts forever and their pack of pencils is a great deal.
The closest Costco to us right now is about 45 minutes away BUT we’re getting a brand new one at the end of the year within 15 minutes driving distance. I CAN’T wait!! I hear such good things about Costco!!
