Shopping for school/office supplies? I saw something you may be interested in.

That is a direct link to Amazon's back to school deals page. I thought some of you parents (and people looking for office supplies) might find that useful.

There are 42 items there. I suppose you could post them as deals if you want. I'm too busy watching the Olympics and the Mars Curiosity landing.

I looked at a few and there are some deals in there, the bigger / bulk items mainly. Otherwise it's hard to beat Wal-Mart and Target for their prices on the back to school basics.

also remember that staples and office depot/officemax have penny deals every week during back-to-school season, usually with a limit of 2-4 items per person or per transaction. Also many items that are free or very cheap after rebate/rewards.
Items like #2 pencils, ball point pens, mechanical pencils, filler paper (college and/or wide ruled), erasers, tape, white out, binders, rulers, glue sticks, folders, etc.

I know that at staples they've had $1 after rewards/rebate reams of paper every week, limit of 2. Most schools appreciate copy/printer paper donations.

My wife's been scouring the Staples deals and eying the Target/Wally World deals. We're on vacation at the moment though so we'll have to wait until we get back to continue...

I was shipping at Target over the weekend and most of the good deals were still in stock.of course that will vary by store but I've found that the earlier you start shopping the mooted likely to bag the good deals.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
