Back 2 School

Good Morning,  while blogging this morning I ran across another blog entitled Have Fun Teaching.  The author of this blog recently did  a price analysis of school supplies between Wal-mart & Target.  I thought this was awesome because I really don't like shopping at Wal-mart but around this time of the year they have the best prices for back to school.  Check out the list & the blog below!

If you want to be the true WINNER for Back to School shopping, and save the most money possible, I would suggest buying some back to school supplies at Wal-Mart and some back to school supplies at Target to get the lowest prices. I also just heard that Staples has back to school supplies for 1 Cent! These sales are on the weekends and each weekend there are different school supplies for One Penny. You may need a teacher rewards card to get this amazing discount.
