Summertime means the clock spins a little faster….. and we are already back to another Friday!
While I didn’t get to spend the week in Vegas this year with all of the amazing teachers, educators, bloggers, and presenters…. I lived a little vicariously through the abundance of pictures through social media! #nextyearforsure
So while I was NOT in Vegas… I have been wrapping up a few grad school projects and moving right along with our Frugal Friday finds!!!
This week was a fun trip for Frugal Friday because I brought the hubby along!
He was super excited! {insert sarcastic tone}
However… he did pick up a few things for himself… so the trip was a WIN for everyone!
Now Home Depot isn’t known for their extremely low prices, however they do have a TON of things that teachers can actually benefit from in the classroom!
And they even offer teacher discounts – you don’t have to pay sales tax! Holla!
(just be sure to fill out their form online before you go!)
Let’s get started….
I know… you immediately think crime scene! However…. I see construction theme written all over this!
I am doing an SDE presentation in the winter that will be using these bad boys!! {Readers Under Construction – finding the tools to build successful readers!}
IGNORE THE PRICE ON THE PICTURE!!!!
These little gems are from $1.29 – $3.98
While you may not be washing cars in your classroom… you can definitely wash some desks, tables, dry erase boards, and cabinets!!
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram… you may see that I have recently formed an addiction with small colored buckets!
These little buckets are NO different!
Don’t like the color….. you are already in the paint section for these little guys so just grab your favorite spray paint color and change them up!
I’ve already bought WAY too many cans of spray paint this summer spicing up bins and buckets (you have probably seen that on my Instagram and Facebook too!)
Nothing says FRUGAL like FREE! These little paint samples come in EVERY.SINGLE.COLOR plus some!
These are great for writing CVC words (just laminate and you can re-use over and over again!)
AHHHH….More Buckets! And these colors!!!!
Can’t have too many of these! If you do center tubs in your room… these are perfect for students to use with centers that include small center pieces! Easy storage and organization!
Metal buckets…. yes please! These little cuties come in ALL different sizes! These are some of the small ones…. and they go all the way up to multi-gallon! Super cute!!!
Well… this may not be frugal…. but geez…. how cute are these jumbo MAGNETIC chalkboards?! Super cute to put on your board or filing cabinet! Add your daily objectives…. create a “Student of the Week” area, or just write your favorite quote!!
Need additional storage?! These colored shelves are perfect AND they are on SALE!!!!!
While I had super fun at Home Depot… the hubby probably won’t make any more Frugal Friday trips with me…. he’s not a fan of me going up and down aisles with my camera! HA!
I’m not gonna lie… it was an entire family event! Jaxon absolutely LOVED finding items to use in the classroom
{although the lawn mower probably wouldn’t fit and the grill wouldn’t pass the safety codes!}
Yes…. the large cart IS necessary.
I will be back VERY SOON with a few new products {they are completed I just haven’t uploaded them yet!} that will be perfect for the first day of school… classroom management/decor…. and MORE!
Happy Friday!
