almondbutterandjelly Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 What school supplies have you gotten to purchase lately? I got several 25 cent notebooks, a few folders, and that's it. 😞 Dd is in college and doesn't need much. I replenished our highlighters and sharpies and ticonderoga pencils and liquid magnus pens last year. Tell me what you bought so I can live vicariously through you.

MEmama Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 DS is a senior and school is online, so no supplies needed here. Yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73349 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 DS didn't need anything. I bought a backpack full of stuff (binders, paper, pens, pencils, colored pencils, index cards, ruler, etc.) and donated it. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are literally JUST composition books with pretty covers 🙂 but, so pretty. I also got a big fancy tablet. I put it off almost until high school! I do come to the education forums. How did I miss it? What's the name of the thread? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Other than curriculum, school supply shopping has been pretty lame the past few years. We've not even really needed to restock pencils. This year, I bought a 3-ring binder and some graph paper spiral notebooks (for math). But nothing super cute or *wow*. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Not planning on buying any right now. I have leftovers from prior years and am unlikely to need much, plus school is virtual for the first 9 weeks at least. Just got their school-issued Chromebooks yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 DS15 bought a spare headset since his current $20 headset might kaput soon. He needs it for his Japanese class. DS15 and I need a new laptop, if we get a suitable one for him then I use his current one. Else I would get one for myself. It really depends on models and price point whether we get a new laptop for him or me first. Stationary wise we have ample supply so no need to top up any.

Shoeless Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I ended up buying a bunch of notebooks and pads of paper for DH. It had not occurred to me that he might need some general office supplies since he is working at home now! Of course, after I bought this stuff, I found a stash of notebooks and paper in a cabinet. We are set for a long, long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
