I only have the stuff like paper cups, sanitizing wipes, ziploc bags of varying sizes and kleenex left on the lists. Oh yes, also a flash drive and a box of writable CD's for my oldest who is going into 5th grade. And a box of crayons for the 2nd grader... the list specified in bold must be 8 or 16. Of course, I could only find a box of 24. At least there were no sticky notes this year-- spent a small fortune on different size sticky notes last year.; July 7, 2007 at 8:31 AM
