Buying supplies for a small business can be very expensive. When we recently set up our new office, I knew where I was going to start. And it wasn't our local office supply store.
I grabbed my husband and we went to our local Dollar Tree. Thankfully the store had plenty to help us get started.
I had never seen tape dispensers before!! Score! The cheapest one at an office supple is $5.99.
Then you must have refills. Six for $1 is an amazing price!
This oversized paper clip is perfect for reminders and notes.
Every desk needs a holder and pens. Holder $1 and a pkg of six pens $1
This is not my favorite white out. I like the white out tape better. But this will get us started. Also, packing tape for our shipping needs.
I am a post it queen! Had to have post it notes for our desk. Dollar Tree has multiple sizes and styles. They even carry Post It brand.
For the files.....labels! 154 for $1
Dollar Tree even has desk drawar organizers and we got clips to go in it.
I always buy my envelopes here also and we found legal pads for notes.
Big Number calculator....$1!
Mailing labels....a must have in any office! 240 for a dollar!!
And scissors...
We got our office operational under $30!
All this would have been over $100 at your local office supply store!
When you are operating on a budget, do not forget to check your local Dollar Tree for great savings! And leave with one impressed husband! :-)
