Get Ready for Back to School Shopping

By News Minder at 07/30/08 09:27

It is indeed that time of year again. My kids have been bugging me to go and buy their school supplies and clothes. I really don't normally enjoy long hours of shopping with my kids but they really love back to school shopping and it usually turns out to be a nice trip.

I didn't really expect this but Staples has some really great back to school items this year. They have these great magnetic locker wallpaper things that don't damage the inside of the lockers like tape would. And they have these really cute stuffed animal pencil holders. My daughter really loved them. I found this site, which gives some details on Staples back to school shopping,CNW Telbec | STAPLES BUSINESS DEPOT | Back-to-School Upgrade

Office Supply Shareholders feel the burn

With sales down in the market as a whole, Office Depot shares fell way below the mark. Before they release a report, they warned shareholders that it may not be pretty. After that news, the stocks changed hands many times with about 8 times the normal trading volume going on.

Office Max and Staples also saw a decrease in value. Maybe because of the association with the office supply industry. To read more visit, As Office Depot plunges, 2 other office supply companies take hit.
