A Few Things to Know About Our Back to School Supplies Cheat Sheet:

  • Pricing will vary some by area. Staples, Office Depot and Office Max pricing should be fairly consistent nationwide, but Walmart and Target prices may be slightly different depending on your location.
  • The regular prices on some items at Staples and Office Depot & OfficeMax are significantly higher on a few things, however their weekly sales ads will have deeply discounted savings that are worth picking up each week.
  • Note that Target, Staples, and Office Depot/Office Max have much lower prices on their store brands that are not all included on this list. Watch for those when you shop. We based the list for the most part on name brands to make the pricing consistent at each store.
  • Since Walmart doesn’t typically offer big sales on their items (just every day low prices), my bet is the Walmart pricing should be pretty similar to what you’ll find at your local Walmart throughout the Back to School season.
