Serve purpose

I purchased these cards for my child who is in K. They are lined on one side blank on the other. They serve their purpose in writing everyday basic study words in pencil. If you use a heavy marker like Crayola or Sharpie it will leave an impression on the other side or it may even bleed through as was the situation with us. These are not the very thick and sturdy ones that we are accustomed to. But as was stated before they serve our purpose well. Would purchase again only when on sale cause otherwise they are not worth the price.
An index card is an index card. It is white about the right size it is lined for easy notes. These notes are used as topic guidelines when talking to a large group of people. The index cards fit easily into your pocket or purse undetected yet a convenient tool for talking on any subject before any audience. Index cards make it much easier to address your audience rather than speaking from a fully typed and printed speech on eight by eleven notebook size white paper. The index card is a great invention.
The index cards were displayed at a good location in the store and the low price was easy to see. I had not planned on purchasing them but ened up buying two because of the low cost. I was pleasentlty surprised when I got home and opened the package to see that they were of good quality. I thought that they may be too thin at that low price.The staples brand index cards were a great value! They were priced inexpensively; they were of a good thickness and the packaging design was appealing. I was very pleased to see al of the good values offered on back to school products at staples. The sales staff at the store was very helpful and showed me where items that I was looking for were located. They are a main reason that I would shop at staples again.
They should be called index papers. I couldn't believe the light weight of these. Come on Staples if you're going to offer something that's not standard at least let us know in the description.
