Staples sale

Just came across this online this morning. A few good items including iphone cases. I was particularly interested in the luggage scales and combination padlocks. Went to my local store for these but they no longer do them but picked up a Vans backpack for less than a fiver and a Collins French dictionary for £2!!

Went home and ordered the luggage scales and padlocks to be delivered to my local store. Job done!:j

  • I went into staples(bradford) earlier and they had an offer on lots of craft things including card making (good quality stuff including me to you) and Fimo clay and modelling packs there was also some language courses including spanish and french. They were down to £2 each or if you picked up a union jack carrier bag you were allowed any 4 items for £5!
    i got a spanish course (marked £9.99), a french course(marked £9.99), a pack of bic kids coloured crayons(the twist up ones about £3.50 in tesco) and an A4 cutting mat(i remember this being about £6 about 3 weeks ago)

    there was a really good range of card making bits that looked really good value too
    Hope this helps someone

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone has got this deal anywhere else in the country?
    I live 1/2hr from my local staples but if this is national i would make the effort to go!
    Thanks

    could you phone them to check maybe? it would be a pain to drive half an hour to find there was nothing left!
    The items were all on a stand with a bundle of bags at the top and a big sign saying £2 each or grab a union jack bag, fill with any 4 items, take it to the till and pay just £5. just phone and ask, im sure they'll let you know :) x

    I popped into my nearest Staples, Huntingdon, (a tiddly little store!!) yesterday and they had a few bits in this offer. I picked up a fimo set (makes farm animals) and some beads and other bits. Not a huge selection, probably just 10 things to choose from? However, I did find some mini keyring kits, each one makes two keyrings and they were £1 each. Bought a few for stocking fillers.

    maybe it is a national offer then? ours had the individual fimo colour blocks (loads of colours) the animal kit, another kit i cant remember what it was though, the keying kits, and a couple of other kits, there was also loads of card making bits including all different blank cards and envelopes, assorted fancy papers, applique, me to you bits and bobs etc. there was quite a lot to choose from
