I’m Finished!!
I’ve finished the school supplies shopping. To be honest, I kind of cheated, because I simply could not find the plastic pocket folders with brads.. so I ended up getting paper pocket folders with brads. Oh, well! I called his school this morning and spoke with some lady up there and asked if it was that big of a deal and she said no, if I can’t find them then just get the paper ones.
I had originally gone to Target, then Walmart, then Kroger.. and then yesterday I called a few places and still nothing, except for Office Max. The girl said they had them. Well, the girl lied. I went there this morning and they didn’t have any such folders. Several other moms were there looking for them also. So I said screw it and got the paper folders.
In a moment of weakness I really did almost end up buying the stupid prepackaged school supplies. But I had to talk myself out of it because I can’t see spending $57.99 on school supplies. Speaking of that, I had been keeping a tally of how much I spent on his school supplies so that I could compare. The total ended up being $19.64 plus about an hour and a half of my time. I’d say it was well worth it. My kiddo is now all ready for school to begin and all I have to say to that is Yay!.
