It's MAIL TIME!!! For the first time in a very long time I did not receive any cool stuff in my mailbox today. The boys on the other hand received some cool mail! They each got letters from their new teachers telling them about all the cool stuff they will be learning about this year and cool activities to do to warm-up their brains for school =) Along with that came the LIST! This is my first year of having a child in school all day and with that comes the list of "please buys" and send with your kids to school on the first day. I honestly was shocked at how much they ASK you to purchase for a 1st grader, but I realize the schools are in dire need of help. At this moment, I am so glad I coupon!! Not only have I already snagged most of the items on the list for FREE or really cheap, but I have a tote full of the same items to donate to the school. It's moments like these that make all my hard work scoping out deals SO WORTH IT!! =)
What filled your mailbox today and are you prepared for back to school?
