Extreme School Couponing!


Ok so let's just say I went a bit overboard on Tuesday at Staples. Here's what I bought 2 packs of copy paper, 50 packs of index cards, 25 highlighters, 50 packs of pencils, 3 rolls of tape, 3 packs of glue sticks, and 1 pack of pens. Are you ready for the grand total?? I spent $25.88 total....but it gets better! I will receive back $9 for the copy paper and $4 back for the pens. That made the copy paper only $1 and the pens free. Pretty cool! I mailed in the rebates today and will receive the check in the mail from Staples in 4 weeks. So when you factor in all of the rebates the GRAND TOTAL will be $12.88!!! Wow thats cool! I never knew that couponing could be so rewarding! 

Later that day, I went to another staples and purchased a pack of 6 expo markers and 25 more packs of pencils for $2.82. I also continued my couponing at Office Depot. I brought two manufacturers coupons for post-it note labels for $1. The sale price was $0.99 for the labels. Therefore Office Depot paid me two cents to carry the post it notes out of the store. Yipee! I didn't even scan a debit or credit card. Ahhhh....I love the rush you get from coupons! 

Now if only I could find notebook paper and composition books on sale! Hopefully Staples and Office Depot will have more great deals. The deals start on Sunday and end on Wednesday! Look in your local stores for great deals :)
