You can find great envelope and paper stock for little or nothing! I've found small hard cover notebooks that I give out to my clients once I add their company information to the cover of the notebooks or envelopes. __________________ Shan Bennifield www.data-n-design.com

And it's only $1 BUCK! __________________ Tip Top Virtual Solutions http://tiptopvs.co.cc

Drop into thrift stores as well and take a look at the household and "stuff" areas. It's surprising what you may find for next to nothing. If you're really into treasure hunting, office furniture, chairs and so on can often be spotted at the curb on garbage day -Lordy I love my minivan - the dogmobile and treasure hauler!

When small businesses go out of business, they usually post there. __________________ Prins Cowin, CPS/CAP, Virtual Business Manager www.KingBusinessManagement.com

I have to admit that I am a supply junkie. That would be truly my ideal job to just order supplies all day. I find myself spending a great deal of time in these types of stores. If you all have a Family Tree or Deals in your area, those are great places to get this cheap. Most definitely the Clearance Racks are the bomb. Regarding the free paper for trading in a ink cartridge, where was this at? __________________ Regeana Canada Mrs. G's Office-To-Go

I always think of the office supply stores as being expensive, now I know where to look. I also never think of the $1 stores. Thanks for the tips! Holly

And it's only $1 BUCK! I have to agree with you Dollar Tree and other dollar stores like Deals are the best. Can't beat the price. Thanks for reminding me about these places. I had not thought of them for my office supplies.

Okay, I'm beyond thrilled - I just purchased a huge 3 1/2 x 6 foot solid wood desk with file drawer, two pull out side writing areas and two smaller drawers for $10.00 at the Habitat for Humanity Restore!!!! If you have one of these stores near you, definitely check it out. You would be amazed at the deals you can find especially on furniture. Now I can really start setting up a proper office. __________________ Carol Aldridge www.ProgressiveBusinessSolutions.net
