Thanks for the list
I actually buy 5 of those items on a regular basis for our home office and our home school. I need to find where to buy the scissors and I'll get those too. I also get American made construction paper, loose leaf paper and computer paper. Oh, my art paint is made in the USA too.
Now if I could just find pencil top erasers and some rulers....
