[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 449030, member: 4264"] If schools want to nit pick supply brands, here's a novel idea! Set it up !! The schools I mean. Why don't they buy the supplies in bulk from somewhere willing to sell at a good price due to volume. Make a kit for the kids and charge at the start of school. Otherwise, they need to get realistic about the lower budgets in families these days and realize that it is a huge expense to kit a child out for a new school year. New clothes, shoes (here we need indoor and outdoor shoes), back pack, lunch kit, all of the supplies, school agenda ($12, crazy!), lock for locker. And those with more than 1 to prepare for the year pull their hair out! [/QUOTE]
