cheap source for Book Sox (stretchy book covers)?

[Anonymous]

My son's back to school list requests 6 Book Sox (jumbo sized).

I priced them at Office Depot or maybe it was Staples. They were $5 each!

I don't want to pay that much for book covers when kids should be able to cover them for free using brown grocery bags as I used to do.

But I thought i'd check around. Does anyone know a cheap source of these types of book covers?

I think they are on sale for $1 at Target this week. Also, we compared Target to Staples (pricewise) this week..and won't be going back to Staples soon.

Make your kid use the grocery bags. Start a cool retro trend!

CVS usually has them on sale at some point in august.

There is a noticable difference between the jumbo and reguler size so be aware. I bought regular ones at AC Moore and CVS and they didn't fit my kids' textbooks so ultimately they were a waste. My kids bring them home at the end of the year, I wash them and they get reused.

Have them at Target for $1 each.

The big office supply stores are generally super expensive for school supplies. They may put a few items at a great sale price, but Target is much better. If you can get to a Walmart you'll save a lot of money.

OP here -- found them in jumbo size at Target today for $1 each -- but just checked my receipt and they only charged me $0.65 for some reason. Sweet!
