Forgot a title for this one...

As I mentioned earlier, the Back to School deals are heading into full force now, and will keep going until school actually starts.  The best thing to do is arm yourself with your school supplies list and buy only the loss leaders each week.  If you're going to Target (or Toys R Us or Staples) anyway, just pick up a few items each week as the sales go on.  I don't like to make special trips just to save money, but I'll go if I am in the neighborhood.

Consider when you are looking at these deals that some of these items will end up being 10 cents, 25 cents, or even a penny at some stores.  Find the deal that works for you, based on what stores you have, or how cheap is cheap enough.
I'll try to highlight deals as I find them:

• This week, Toys R Us has buy 1 get 2 free (yes, 2) on Crayola markers, crayons, colored pencils, and papers.  This could be a really great deal, but Target had 24 packs of crayola crayons for 25 cents last week.  
• TRU also has free lunch kits with the purchase of backpacks.
• Here are some Nexcare bandages coupons.  I've found you can get the bandages nearly free with $1 off.  You should be able to print two of each coupon.
• If you need kids' uniforms, Amazon has Dockers uniform pieces for 60% off.  Always free shipping with $25 spent.
• Babies R Us coupons
• Office Depot printable coupon for $10 off $25, or use code 96192896 online for $10 off $50.  Looks like Office Depot is going to be doing rewards like Staples, offering $3 back for used ink cartridges.
• Oh, Staples!  25 cent and $1 deals on school supplies, see ad for complete list and a $50 off coupon for a computer, but some of my favorites: pencilcases for 25 cents, glue for a penny, $1 markers, backpacks for 50% off (though wait for the full rebate from Staple Rewards for a free one in a few weeks.
• Three good Borders coupons, good till tomorrow only:  33% off, 47% off Jennifer Weiner books, and 50% off a short list of books.
• Also, be on the lookout for the latest issue of Parents magazine.  It has a 20% off coupon for Pampers diapers on Amazon that will match up well with their current deal of 30% off. This is a great time to stock up on diapers and wipes, with free shipping right to your home.  (the first link is for my post about the deal, and the 30% off link shows all the diapers involved in the deal.)

I hope these deals help you out!
