Holy Hit the Jackpot!!!

While at Target today I really hit the Back to School Jackpot!!!!   My theme this year is Dr. Seuss. SOOOOOO when I hit the dollar aisle what did I see? :))  Totebags, Dry Erase boards, stickers, erasers, and flashcards!!!

After that I headed over to Books-a-Million for some of my favorite Back to School titles!!!!!  I had some gift cards!!

Then to the Dollar Tree for Baskets and such!!!

Overall a very successful day!!!!  One last tidbit an idea for playing any game that involves rolling dice. Use these little gems!!!  Students roll the dice and they don't fall all over the place :))

Happy Back to School!!!
