My Epic Shopping Trip

I have to report back to school August 10th {Of course I will be in my classroom before that getting organized}, but I am leaving for Kotzebue {a small village up north} on Tuesday and won't get back till the following Wednesday so I decided to get a lot of my school stuff today. Plus I had coupons to use.
Of course I had to get some Starbucks to get me going.
Cute, comfy shoes are a must {I LOVE my Keens!}
This was the high temp today - much different than most of you
All my purchases
I went to:

Office Max: $1 for 12 Sharpies (with coupon); 2 packs of bright cardstock and 1 pack of white cardstock.

Michaels: Glass Gems {$1 a pack}; Plastic Jewels; Scrapbook Paper {to make paper lantern stars}; A large R and K with hooks attached {my name starts with R and my TA with K}; Stamp Pads {for $1}

Target: Plastic Cups {for name, chant, cheer sticks}; Plastic Baskets and Caddies for student supplies

Costco: 1 inch clearview binders {for my STAR notebooks}; Lysol wipes and Ziplock Baggies {I have students bring these in, but I got a stash for me to use before school starts}.

I will go to Wal-Mart once I get back from Kotzebue to get supplies like pencils, glue, crayons, markers etc.


This was my view at 9:30 when I got home from Small Group - I love living in Alaska!!!!

    Mrs. Pollard - The coupon for the Sharpies was in the ad that we got with the Sunday newspaper. My roomate actually found it and pointed it out to me.

    Kristin - That was one of the harder things to get used to when I moved up here. It was August and it never got completely dark. Of course we make up for it in the Winter with only 3-4 hours of daylight.
