Giveaway: Avery School & Office Supplies

School just started back last week and we are going to celebrate with a school and office supply giveaway from Avery Dennison. Hooray!
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 maybe give me your favorite money saving 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 Thrifty Mommy and/or Keeping the Castle 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 Wednesday, September 9, 2009. Winners will be contacted via email and will have 72 hours to respond.
Good luck everyone!

This basket of goodies would come in so handy. I love Avery products, they make it so easy to use with their templates. As for a money saving tip, I just try to look for the best deals. When it’s back to school time all the stores try to out do each other, so I stock up for the year. For school and work! Thanks for the contet!
Can we use Twitter for educational activities?

My favorite school supplies are nice new pencils sharpened with a clean eraser. Also I like notebooks with something on the front of them (a neat picture maybe).

I like to combine shopping sales with using coupons and rebates! I always say it’s not what you spend, but what you save, that counts!
Thanks for the giveaway!

I love buying any item that has a mail-in-rebate. Staples usually does this and you can do it on-line so you save a stamp.

With 4 boys in school, we always need a ton of supplies! We try to stock up when the stores have sales.

I like that Avery is now a Box Tops partner. I don’t have any school age kids, but I know several teachers, so I help them stock up for the year by shopping the sales.

I like basic school supplies like notepads, markers, pens, pencils, etc.
I never have enough spiral notebooks. Sure can use some.
Thanks for the chance to win a Prize!
With 2 kids in college and one in high school, these supplies would sure come in handy
Thanks for the giveaway… at the beginning of the school year, when I was a kid, my Dad would give me a brand new pen / pencil set & fake leather portfolio embossed with the name of the company where he worked; with these, I thought I had the coolest school supplies in my class !!!

This basket would be perfect for me. I’m a teacher in a high poverty school, and the kids often don’t have money for school supplies. I stock up on things for them when Staples and other stores have sales.

School supplies that we had to buy this year changes since my daughter moved to middle school. She had to have binders and pockets for each class – hasnever used a binder before, she is growing up!
I love all school supplies since I love stationery products in general. I especially love markers and pretty folders!. Thanks so much.
Our state has a tax free holiday right brfore school starts. You can buy school supplies even computers tax free. It saves money.
we love school and office supplies.

It’s best to buy school supplies enough for the whole year during the back to school sales…it’s way cheaper than having to stock up mid-year!
I’m following you on Twitter. (My Twitter name is @ThriftyJinxy)
I always love buying fresh notebooks and cool crayons.
Money saving! Be sure the scissors you bought last year make it home, and then you can reuse them this year!
