{Easy} Savings on Office Supplies

It is now day 26 of my 31 days of Easy. You know how when you start to focus on something you see it everywhere?

I was remaking our guest beds and I thought, "I could write a post about hospital corners!'  Or, when harvesting my first fall crop of radishes, I thought: "Ya know, it's so EASY to grow radishes; I should write about it."

On the other hand. It isn't easy writing articles, taking and editing photographs 31 days in a row!

Today's post is one that I've been thinking about for a week. It is a mini commercial for the office supply store that actually chose EASY as the word they most want you to associate with them.


One of my favorite things about Staples is that they give credit on returned ink cartridges. You redeem the credit at the store to purchase other items. The other day I used a $20 Visa card that was a rebate Staples gave me for buying $24 dollars worth of paper. I also used a coupon for $5 off a purchase of $30, as well as my $4 of credit for returned ink cartridges. AND I carried my loot to the car in a bag they provided for free.

I don't know what you call that kind of shopping trip. But I call it...Easy.


About 31 days of EASY: 
So many things in life are hard.  And some of those hard things are necessary. But why make things harder than they need to be?  For 31 days, I'll be writing about ways to bring ease.  I would be honored if you came along on my journey.  Pack light.

Many Blessings to you.

    Easy... I forget about their cartridge program... they are all the way in Mesquite...almost an hour. I wonder if they have a promo- thru the mail... to me, that would be easy. :)
    I do like the eco friendly bags though.
    I'm with you on the whole hanging in there for 31 days... not as easy as it sounds. :)

      Cartridges have to be returned to the store; too bad. I guess you could save a bunch for when you travel to town.

My Father's Words

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." Love never fails
