Silly, but where do you get your writing paper for 3rd graders?

[Alicia64]

I find myself being relatively "careful" with out notebooks and I'm starting to realize how silly that is.

 

I'm buying notebooks for 3rd graders the expensive way -- special notebooks at Walmart.

 

Any other ideas?

 

Thanks!

I try to stock up on notebooks during school supply sales in August when they are 0.13 cents are so. I buy a ton of lined looseleaf at the same time. We also bought 1 notebook and 1 pack of paper when we ordered HWT. We don't use that all the time though.

I buy all of my paper (writing, construction, cardstock) from Miller Pads and Paper.

I buy 2 "special" notebooks for each year (we do writing, spelling, and some grammar on wide-ruled spiral notebooks). I let the girls choose then, usually kittens or puppies or something. Then for any other writing outside of that, I try to stock up with the 10 cent notebooks at Wal-Mart at starting school time.

By 3rd grade my children use regular old looseleaf paper that I buy in sales during BTS, usually at Staples when they have their penny deals. For "special" notebooks I have a big box full of the good composition notebooks that I got for less than a quarter apiece. They get one of those to decorate and use for a couple of subjects, and the rest of the year they use plain spirals and plain notebook paper. We always spend the first day of "school" decorating the fronts of the new folders and spirals and 3 ring binders with stickers and such for the year.
