The "help!" hard-to-find back-to-school supply thread

[zukeypur]

Elmer's glue sticks are $.25 for the small individual, or $.50 for the small 2 packs. The 6 packs were more expensive per stick at ~$2

Where have you seen the unruled spiral notebooks (I think this is what they want)? I've checked Walmart, Target, Office Depot, and Walgreens - nothing!

We were at Target yesterday and they had a stack of art spiral notebooks in the school supply section (the seasonal one, not the year round crayola aisle). It was in one of the cardboard displays out on the floor. They were under $5. HTH!

If you want a sketchbook, then you can use the 40/50% coupons at Michaels for those as well.

Can anyone help me figure out what an 'art box' is? It's on my first grader's list. TIA.

I don't know if these are a good price, but they should give you an idea what you're looking for:

Can't you just buy the folders separately?
