1-cent specials at Staples (starting July 6, 2008)

The students are thrilled school is out, but Staples is in a hurry to get them back to school! Their new ad, starting Sunday July 6, 2008, is having a number of 1-cent specials to entice early "back to school" shoppers. At this rate, we are going to have back to school sales the day after the previous school season ends. But that's another story. Here are the 1-cent specials, good Sunday through Wednesday July 9, or while supplies last:

• Purell 0.5oz bottles. Because you can never be too obsessed with germs. After all, the human body has zero germs ;-) Limit two per customer per visit
  
• 8-pack of Dixon #2 yellow pencils, limit two per customer per visit
  
• 2-pocket paper folders, 10 per customer per visit

Apart from the penny sales, there is also a free after Easy Rebate item: Pentel HandyLines retractable assorted highlighters. The in-store price is $5 but after you submit and receive your Easy Rebate, the price goes down to zero. Do note that sales tax is not included in the rebate amount.


Other Notable Sales Items
If you are looking for an all-around notebook at a good price, run to Staples to get the Compaq Presario F761us for just $400 after a $30 rebate. Don't let the price fool you, this notebook has everything you need for everyday work, including dvd burner, dual core processor, 15.4" widescreen, wireless, and things like that as Arnold says.
