Take advantage of the back to school sales everywhere for your office supplies. I bought folders at Office Depot for host packets for 2 cents each last year.
 
If anyone sees such sales, please, if you would, post your findings here. I don't have an Office Depot near by (over an hour away) and even Staples and Office Max are 45mins. My area never receives sales flyers for such stores either. I'm lucky if I get Kmart & Target (no Wal-Mart flyer even though I do have one 1mile away).

Your assistance will be much appreciated! :D
 
You can check Walmart's ad for your area on their site. (Actually, most stores post their weekly ad). My Walmart has folders advertised for 15 cents. Office depot has them for 5 cents.
 
Our Office Depot went out of biz a few months ago...will have to see if I can buy them online with the photocopies I need. Thanks. If anyone sees folders cheap at other stores, I'd love the heads up.
 
I'll help keep posted too. I'm a teacher and I purchase the folders in bulk. Last year I bought the nice plastic ones for PC. I put a paper protector inside and have inforamation about the business on one side and my recipe choices on the back side. It looks very professional and easy to load. I list my recipes for two months, so I only need to add a catalog and order form before using again at shows.
 
Wowwwwwwwwww...
A thread with "office Supplies" as the subject.
I think I've died and gone to heaven!
I just LOVE this time of year!!!

Last week Walgreens had pens for 19 cents and folders for 9 cents.

I regularly buy supplies at Office Max with my perks card ... and get huge discounts every day. The labels and business card magnets are about $4 each.
