Best places for supplies

Okay, so I have seen a lot of people doing some summer shopping.  I haven't done much yet, but I have been looking.  Here are some good deals I have seen:

Binders:  Walmart has some of the Avery Durable binders in 4 packs for around $15 online.  That is an awesome price!  Sometimes the Durable binders are like $5-$8 each depending on where you buy them.

A 3 subject notebook:  I like using a 3 subject notebook for meetings instead of keeping staff meeting notes in a teacher binder.  Usually your teacher binder is heavy and bulky to drag to every meeting.  A notebook is much easier.  I also like a notebook with pockets to put all the handouts from the meetings.  I love the Spine Guard 3 subject notebook at Staples.  It is on sale right now for like $2.50 off.  I bought a new one yesterday.  I use the first section for meeting notes, the second for planning ideas, and the third for professional development. It even comes with little flags.

Pens:  My sister-in-law introduced me to Injoy pens.  They are cheap, come in lots of colors, and write very smooth.

Can you tell I love school supplies...for myself?  Lol...I also just told my husband I was taking a break from posting tonight.  Oh, well - I wanted to share some of my favorite supplies.

Side note: How does one break into the guest blogger world?  I think it would be fun to be a guest blogger or have guest bloggers.  Would anyone be interested in being a guest blogger here?  What about doing a guest blogger series on differentiation or anecdotal records - two things I find to be teacher challenges?

P.S.  It looks like I won a Versatile blogger award.  Yay!  So, now I need to think of where to pass that on to.
