I purchase the school supplies for my 4 of my grandchildren. Since I am on a fixed retirement income I truly appreciate the sale prices of Staples. I check the circulars of the Sunday Washington Post and see which items Staples has on sale that week and then we go shopping. I especially like that the sale items are usually easy to find and are clearly marked. If I need assistance I can usually quickly find a store associate to help. I also like the bonus items for instance: an item for 1 cent in you spend $5.
