Back to school time is here and that means back to school shopping!

This week there are some fantastic bargains at Office Max! Even if you don’t have kids going back to school, this is the time to stock up on office supplies. Head over here for my favorite deals at the big office supply stores this week. We can all get a 5 pack of Bic highlighters for $.49 at Office Max while supplies last, usually $3.99. Wired ear buds are on sale for $1.99, composition books are 3 for $1, and filler paper is just $.49. My biggest piece of advice is to stick to the advertised deals, they have higher prices than Target and Walmart on almost everything else I’ve found.

If you love back to school shopping from the comfort of your own home, I found a great deal on a heavy-duty pencil sharpener. Head over here to get 53% off the Xacto Classroom electric model. You’ll pay $28 instead of $60 and it should last for a long, long time.

Back to school means back to sports for a lot of AZ kids and that means sports physicals! Head over here or a coupon that will get you a FastMed sports physical for HALF OFF. . FastMed has locations all over town.

If you’re like me and not ready for summer to end, why not fit in one more getaway to Flagstaff? Head over here to get a summer chairlift ride in Snowbowl for a huge discount. You’ll pay $59 for a family of four instead of $96. This is a beautiful ride with much cooler temperatures and it’s so much fun to hike around the top of the mountain.

Enjoy!
