Okay I totally get this from my mom. I can remember how into school supplies she would get. I also share that sickness. I love when walmart, staples, officemax, target, and everywhere you go you find the crayons for 9 cents, paper for 15 cents, folders for 5 cents, scissors for 8 cents. I stock up like crazy. Last year I made cute little packages for my friend going back to Pakistan. She said their cousins would love to have those things. I think each package cost me under a dollar. How fun is that! My stock up supply also came in handy when Hurricane Katrina hit and the ward at our church asked us to put together little school supply kits for the people in shelters. I also got a ton of school clothes from Kohl's which I have never really found much at before. I blame you Katie John! It all started with that awesome pink and brown dress from Kohl's. I love mine! It is so comfy, and easy, and it was pretty cheap! I already got Derek new balance shoes for PE, for only $19.97 with free shipping. Thanks for my brother in law Casey, and my constant bugging him to help me shop for the boys, I found Derek's "skater shoes" for only $29. I am still working on the rest of the boys. I love finding a good deal!We also started a new food storage program at church this month. If we follow it until we move from here we will have our entire 2 year food storage! I am excited. I am a food storage, and emergency preparedness junkie! This month we are buying peanut butter, and toilet paper. Enough for the entire year for your family. Odd combination! I need a sam's club near here! Hope you enjoyed my ramblings for today. We are off to see Harry Potter, and Ratatooee. Me and the two little boys don't like Harry Potter. Too scary!

8 cents for crayons?! man i was just excited to get some for 20 cents!
Kohls does get some great sales! I just have to make sure I don't buy anything there that ISN'T on sale! I love stocking up on office supplies too! Even before I had kids in school, now I think i have an excuse!
School supplies are great fun for some reason...I always buy way more than is necessary!
