Wilkinsons school stationary bargains!

kelly140481

Don't know if it's store specific, but I went into my local store today to get some pens for school. There were a lot on the reduced rack, packs of scented gel pens and neon gel pans marked up at £1. Took a couple to buy along with a 50p pencil case, only to find out at the till that they were all reduced to 10p!

Here a list of what I found:

Sharpie markers 4 pack 10p
Bic retractable pencils 3 pack 30p
Stabilo easy pen left handed pink 10p
Stabilo worker rollerball pen 10p
Stabilo bionic worker rollerball 10p
Pink fur pencil case 10p
Black barrel case 10p
Uniball scented gel ink pens, 3 pack 10p
Wilko neon gel ink pens, 5 pack 10p
Staples 10p

All these items were marked up at much higher prices, but all scanned at 10p at the till!

I know it's a Grabbit so first and foremost thank-you yet this seems to be the most incorrectly used word on this forum.
Stationary - when something isn't moving
Stationery - paper notebooks and the like (E as in envelope)

Haha certain spelling mistakes are a gripe of mine too, makes me want to get a red pen and start circling. Maybe I should have been a teacher. But great find OP, hope it's in all stores, so I can get my daughter stocked up for her first year at High School

I also got some notepads today in the Wilkinson's in Bolton, absolutely lovely pink notepads in the shape of ice cream sundaes which were also 10p:j

Nothing in my local Wilko. I love stationery but probably don't need any more.

M and S website spell stationery as stationary.........:(

Thanks, a bit late today but found a box of red pencil cases on a sale trolley, marked 50p but scanned at 10p. Will make great party bags for daughters party. They had quite a few highlighter pens but didn't need any of those so don't know what they would have scanned at.
