    I was checking out their site and I noticed the box of computer paper on sale. Can anyone tell me how much paper 10 reams is? I usually buy mine in the normal 500 sheet packages. Is that considered a ream? I guess thats my question- How many sheets is a ream?

    I must not be understanding this: They have a case of paper for $29.99 which is the equivalent of 10 500 sheet packages which is roughly $3 a pack. Then in their school supply offers they have individual 500 packs for .25. Is this a typo? Or maybe one of those deals where they will only have about 10 packs in the store?

    It is not a typo, but it is the price after a rebate. You pay $5.99 in store, limit 2 packs per customer, then submit a Staples Easy Rebate for $5.74 per pack. The rebate form prints with your receipt. Make sure the rebate form prints. You can then either mail in your rebate or submit it online and save yourself a stamp. It looks like this rebate will come as a check. Some Staples rebates come as a Staples gift card or Staples Rewards so you need to watch. For this promo they will most likely have plenty in stock.

    I totally agree Cindy. I do not want to begin thinking about work until the night before I have to see my lovely babies (9th and 10th graders) walk through my classroom door.

    I wish I would have seen this post earlier. How long does this sale last and is it name brand stuff like Elmers glue, etc. Are they all out in a day?

    Onabudget, the sale goes through WEDNESDAY. My store was very well stocked! There is a limit of 2, unless you show your teacher ID. For teachers the limit is 25. You have to spend $5 on something other than those deals, but that's not difficult! The eraser caps are store brand (I think) & 12 count, the glue is 4oz store brand & the pens are 8 count black Bic.

    Enjoy!

    My paper showed that the $.01 sales would only last up to Wednesday. I'm going today. Kroger also has the 24 ct Crayola crayons for $.25!!!!! I went last night, but they were all sold out.
