Avery School & Office Supply Giveaway

School has been in progress and hopefully everyone is used to their new schedules. We’re celebrating with a giveaway from Avery Dennison.
This giveaway includes great stuff like Hi-Liters, labels, GlueStics, binders, dividers,sheet protectors, Marks-a-Lot permanent markers, and t-shirt transfers. The gift basket has a retail value of over $50!
Avery recently partnered with Box Tops for Education. Now, when you purchase Avery school supplies for the new academic year you also receive Box Tops coupons to clip and return to your child’s school to be redeemed for cash. Each school then uses the cash at their discretion to purchase new supplies, fund programs, or buy much-needed equipment, computers, etc.
I know you’d like to win this great prize package from Avery. As usual, I have several ways for you to earn entries. Of course, the more times you enter, the higher your odds of winning. Here are your options:
1) Leave a comment with something other than “enter me”. Tell me about the school supplies you like or a housekeeping or saving money tip.
2) Tweet about this giveaway on twitter. There is an easy tweet button to your right. Be sure to leave your twitter name or status url in the comment box. You can earn 3 tweet entries per day.
3) Follow @thriftymommy on twitter.
4) Blog about this giveaway or mention it on some sort of forum. Leave a direct url so that I can easily find the info for your entry.
5) Give this post a thumbs up on Stumble Upon, Digg It, add a link on Facebook, or some other way of promoting the giveaway.
6) Add Keeping the Castle and/or Thrifty Mommy to your blogroll.
You can earn entries for each of these things that you do. Please leave a separate comment for each one. It just makes it easier for tallying entries and choosing a winner.
This contest ends Sunday, September 27, 2009. Winners will be contacted via email and will have 72 hours to respond.
Good luck everyone!

We blow through office supplies in our house, but I’d say our three year old ends up being more responsible for that, rather than necessity…

I love office supplies! It was my favorite part of going back to school when I was a kid. I guess my favorite would be highlighters. A lot of fun!

My favorite office supply is a good pen. There’s nothing worse than trying to work and having a pen that is cheap and stops working.
I love colored pencils! They have always been my fave!
My favorite school supplies are hi-lighers, glue sticks and paper because we go through SO much of it. I also love glitter glue for the nieces crafty projects. Thanks for the giveaway!

I like basic school supplies like paper, notebooks, rulers and pens.
We use coupons often now, buy store brand, try & conserve much more than we used to…Thanks for the giveaway!
I shop for sales and combine coupons with sale prices on almost all my purchases.

I love all school/office supplies. When I was growing up in the 60’s, I would spend my allowance on pencils, Rainbow Tablets, stationery, postcards…

Stock up when things are super cheap so you always have what you need on hand.
I try to save money by combining coupons with sales when grocery shopping.
