It is 10 per customer so picked up 10 and had my daughter pick up 10. I'm going back later for more. They have them with or without brads, so be sure to check. I use the ones without brads for host packets! YAY!
 
Thanks for the tip Cindy! I need to get more folders.
 
Is staples on the way to the airport???? I must check on Sunday.....................
 
The circular for our area had it from this past Sunday to Wednesday--I thought it was for the whole week and got corrected when I went this morning. They are now back at 15 cents a piece here. I am upset with myself for not going prior to today.

I paid 1 cent apiece this morning Harriet!
 
I read that Cindy and that's why I responded. Lucky you!!!!!!!! I am jealous!!!!!!!

What dates did your circular show for this penny sale? Maybe it is different than here.

I checked around the store and found the display showing 15 cents and brought the flyer to the service desk and they said that the penny sale ended Wednesday as indicated on the flyer. I tried to see what would happen.
 
25 if you are a teacher---or trainor--?
 
I did get some wednesday and went back today only to be told it ended on Weds here too. But ours are $0.72 here!!!! I couldn't believe it that is outrageous.

Sorry Harriet! I should have posted it when I found out earlier in the week, I didn't even think of it. My mom is a teacher, so we all went several times a day Mon-Wed to get as many as we could. Our friend who is also a teacher even had her 5 year old going through the line separately to get some for her. But yeah, unfortunately it ended Wednesday here in NH :(
 
Not to worry, there will be lots of penny sales coming up at Office Max, WalMart and other places with Back to School sales.

Oh well. I need to learn to read the flyers better. I spent quite a bit of money there as it was and got some other good deals from the clearance rack. I was able to get 25% off Avery mailing labels with the purchase of an ink cartridge. I needed both so that was good!
