      These are not the sticky tag, But rather the printable name tags that slip into a plastic holder with an attached little gold safety pin to attach to your shirt or the same thing with a small clip. My thoughts that regardless of type the sales might be significantly affected while we are just not having meetings. I hope for Rabbit's sake that there will be a big onslaught of meetings once (if or when) we can start safely have in person meetings!

      They don’t necessarily raise the price. They just start the discounts at the msrp. Most stores don’t sell at msrp normally so items were on sale before the liquidation.

    Outdated planners are great taking messages on the phone. Or even recipes I watch on Netflix cooking shows. Throw one in the car's glove box with a pen. Good for grocery list, shopping lists. Notes for the kids. Etc. Journals for kids grades 2-7. Those desk calendars are great for kids doing art. Just flip the pad over if it's outdated. Good for teachers playing word games with kids. To bad I live so far away! All the best.

      They are the ugliest example of "management" that is totally fucking incompetent as hell and totally hateful of employees. I quit working there after they made it clear that when working there, you are either on their "princess" list or their "shit list." They did it purely out of spite. It's like working in the real world except your childhood bullies are now your bosses. Truly despicable scumbags. Some days were SO painful that I wished the brand would go under. I'm glad it is now. They closed so many stores in my town that the nearest one is over a 40-minute drive on the highway. FU Office Depot. Hope you go completely under. You are a textbook example of grossly despicable, petty mismanagement.

    A little FYI. The backpack with netting so you can see thru it is for a kid who wants to use to carry books from class to class. Most schools have a no bags in classrooms or between class policy due to school shootings and having somewhere to hide stuff. So bags like this or the clear plastic ones are a solution for students to carry in classroom.

Same with some of the other office items where paper weight adds up quick for a much better return since weight doesn't count up to 20lbs, or makes it viable to sell on Ebay in lots. Every time you can ship two or more of something for the same cost Priority or darned close, than one would cost, really adds up quick.
