It’s that time of the year, and if you haven’t visited Staples for your back to school and fall shopping just yet, luckily there’s still time (and great store hours) to help you accomplish this. From students to teachers and everyone in between, there’s something for everyone with this year’s assortment of featured products at Staples – in store and online – to help Canadians go back-to-school like a Pro!
Here’s what we saw in store at Staples, trending and likely coveted by your kids this year:
O Canada!
What better way to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday than to sport your pride with Canadian-themed products. The Hilroy Weekly/Monthly Student moose-themed planner is perfect to keep the festive spirit going all year long. Use a beaver pen from Merangue or a Canada-themed light-up pen to mark down important activities. Store all your Canadiana items in our celebratory Canada 150 animal, lumber jack and 150th anniversary pencil pouches that are both functional and stylish.
Vibrant Colours
Get your school year off to a bright start! Staples prides itself on bringing a cheery attitude to the back-to-
school season. Take minimalism and vibrant colours to the desk with poppin tape dispensers, files, cups and trays made in bright fuchsia, white, blue and more. Stay organized with adjustable locker shelves that come in various bright colours to lighten up any locker. A new year also means a new backpack! Choose from an array of brand name backpacks that come in a diverse selection of bright prints, solid vibrant colours and designs.
Make a Positive Impact With ME to WE
Each ME to WE item purchased at Staples helps a WE community overseas. ME to WE casemade binders and zipper binders, and Notebooks and Journals make organizing look stylish and coordinate well with other ME to WE products, like lunch bags and backpacks.
Cartoon Craze
Licensed products are the perfect statement pieces to help kids break the ice on their first day of school. HEYS® Star Wars, Minions and Frozen licensed backpacks offer a variety of fun and functional cartoon-based designs. Thermos Spiderman licensed lunch bags will have your student-to-be the class-favourite.
Keep it clean and green
Do your part to take care of the planet with eco-friendly and recycled supplies. Staples Eco Highlighters, made with 78 per cent recycled plastic water bottles, are a staple for every avid note taker. Post-it Assorted Recycled Post-it notes contain 30 per cent post-consumer content. Plan your days with the Blueline Duraglobe Academic Monthly Desk Pad Calendar made of sugarcane-based paper.
Organizing made easy
From the dorm room to locker, Staples has all organizational needs covered. Staples Assorted Plastic Storage Totes help maximize storage space with endless possibilities. Have endless thoughts and jot everything down? Staples Better Binders keep everything in check for teachers and students alike. Need to pin something to your locker or fridge? The Merangue Emoji Face Magnets are cute and functional.
We found everything we needed for back to school, including lunch kits and backpacks at Staples this week! Staff are always friendly and helpful, nearby on the floor and available when you need them. I even snuck in a few office treats for myself, including a gorgeous daytime planner and yes, some pretty pens because I’m obsessed with all the pretty stationary items at Staples!
