FABULESS School Supply SHOPPING!

I can't believe we're already seeing the school supply deals. But heck, before you know it, it'll be August and the Halloween isle will be in full swing at Walmart. What can ya do...

So I LOVE school supply shopping. I always stock up for the ENTIRE year! I still have a few spiral notebooks from last summer! (My kids love taking those to church for coloring). But the key is to purchase the item at ROCK BOTTOM prices. Sometimes that may entail going to different stores, making different trips. But if it means that in the end I only spend $20 for all my school supplies... then I'M ALL OVER IT!

So if you're out shopping and you see a FAB price on school supplies somewhere, click on this link on the side bar and leave your finds in the comments!

Wondering who's got the best prices on what, just click on our cute little button and find the most recent post!

Haven't been into Walmart lately (oh Walmart, I haven't missed you ONE BIT!), so I don't know if they've got the school supplies on sale yet.

So where are you going to shop this week? I'm holding out for cheap crayons and cheaper crayola markers. And wait for a bit on the spiral notebooks, every year Target and ShopKo have these babies for $.10 each (and I usually buy a box of 20). What are you holding out for?

Let us know if you come across any FAB bargains!
