  7. I would love to win this bundle! I love all back to school supplies especially a brand new day planner.

  8. I just AWWW’d over the potential for a free give away to make school days easier. I’d love the calendar, my daughter’s started soccer and gymnastics. To be able to have stickers to represent her activities in a visual way would be so helpful for her; she’s 4 and doesnt read.

    Thank you so much for this awesome giveaway. I have to admit, I love back-to-school shopping. There are just so many cool products. I have to say though I’m lost without my Mom’s Ultimate Family Fridge Calender. With 4 kids in elementary school, this is a must!!

  19. As a WAHM, I could use all the organization I can get! I run a busy daycare, and that calendar is my right hand! I could so use every item there!!

  20. It’s a toss up which is my favourite: the smell of a blank notebook or the sharpness of new crayons.

  21. I’ve used that calendar for years, love it! I always wait to buy it late and on sale..but free would be better! Thank you!

  23. My favourite back to school item is the calendar. I love having a big one to write on everyone’s appointments, activities, etc. I used coloured pens so it’s easy to see who is doing what.

  25. Ooohhhh, I just love my mom calendar, I have the magetic one that goes on the fridge. Totally keep our family on track all year around, not just back to school. I do love all the crisp new paper that comes out at this time of year too, yum!

  26. Well…it’s hard for me to say what my favorite thing for back to school is…because I’m a stationery junkie…and I love everything stationery! However, my daughter loves colorful binders, dividers and pens. I have so much fun buying back to school supplies!!

  27. I love day planners. Entering all the names and addresses and planning my year–even if that is the old school way of doing things.

  28. I love all back to school supplies or office supplies. Anything that has bright colors and pretty designs on them. When I am having a bad day I go to my collection of pens, pencils, binders, color post it notes etc and this make me so happy. A great new pen and a lovely book to record your daily thoughts is such a wonderful time to sit and enjoy your alone time.

  29. My favorite items for back to school are unsharpened pencils and new notebooks. There is always such a sense of possibility when you open a brand new notebook and sharpen a new pencil. What a wonderful give away!

  40. My favorite back to school (and any other time) school supplies are a new sprial-bound notebook and coloured pens. I use the notebook to track everything. Each colour is designated for different things. For example, green is for my volunteer work for a local environmental society, blue is for home renovation and design ideas, purple is for wardrobe planning ideas, etc. Add some Post-It tabs and my notebook could change the world!

  41. My absolutely favourite back-to-school items for my 5 & 61/2 year olds are Mabel’s Labels (www.mabelslabels.ca) for all their stuff…jackets, shoes, waterbottles…..we have saved so much money not having to replace lost items! That makes them a must in our family!

  42. It’s all about the packs of paper for me! They go on sale for a fraction of the regular price and they just look so clean when put in a new binder. So full of possibilities!

  43. My favorites are fun colored note books…..I like a different color one for each subject 🙂

  44. Ahh…back to school…a fresh new start! Thanks for the Canadian giveaway! As a kid, I loved to organize all my new school supplies before Labour Day. As a Momma, I definitely love a good planner and some higlighters to keep the four young ‘uns schedules straight!

    I LOVE supplies all of them, the smell of new school supplies makes me happy. Sadly our school buys them in elementary school here. So we don’t have to buy them now. But it was my favourite to organize all the new supplies in my backpack when I was younger

  55. This is my first year needing to buy supplies for my kids. I always loved getting new supplies when I was a child, but there is so much more available now! I have no idea what my boy will need so I would love to win this pack so that I could sample everything and know what I will want in future years!

  56. Amazing how many of those same products I was looking at this week in Walmart! Our favorite “back-to-homeschool” supplies are shiny new pens and notebooks for the year’s journals, and art supplies.

  57. After homeschooling for 2 years I am putting my girls back into the public system. I forgot how much back to school shopping could be so stressful! I would have to say the best thing for us are the five star binders cause that is the only thing my girls can agree on that they like and fast! Otherwise there are so many choices they can’t decide and want the latest and coolest of everything. haha I am glad to say I am finished my back to school shopping finally along with clothes and survived!!! LOL

  58. I love back to school supplies. All year round, I love ’em!
    Favorite probably new pens and notebooks. More for me than for my kids though. 🙂

  65. Yay! A contest for Canadians! And school supplies too 🙂 I love school supplies of any sort. I’m particularly interested in the Mom’s fridge calendar. I’ve always wanted to try one but we always end up being given lots of traditional wall calendars instead. Winning one would be amazing! Thanks for a great giveaway.

  66. Ummm……I love all back to school supplies. Opening up a new pack of pens, sharpening fresh pencils; getting it all organized; it all reminds me of a new school year/ a new beginning.

  67. My favorite supplies for back to school are pretty pens and notebooks filled to the brim with empty pages just waiting for me to write on!

  68. Even though I am long out of school, every year at this time, I comb the back to school sections for decorative ballpoint pens. In my school days, Papermate made great ones each year with flowers, bugs, designs, etc. And from that day on, I love pretty pens!!

  69. For me back to school means a new notebook, a day timer and a calendar. I have to stop myself from buying EVERYTHING as I love the feel and smell of new school stuff. Now with kids, I also add “labels” to my list of back to school goodies.

  70. One of my favourite back to school items is a hand-held pencil sharpener. Nothing like the gentle twist of getting your pencils and pencil crayons sharp and ready for another school year. And contests to see who can twist off the longest shavings!

  71. I would love to win this bundle. I was looking at this calendar today at Walmart…looks pretty interesting.

  72. I would love to win this bundle! My favorite thing for back to school is definitely a calendar with stickers for marking important events and activities. My new fridge is stainless steel so magnets don’t stick to it, but I’ve found a way with suction cups and hooks to still get my family calendar on the fridge.

  73. My favorite school supplies for the kids would be their rollerbags and cute calendars to help them organize themselves and their homework.

  74. I love school supplies and getting my family organized. These items would definitely help out! I love colour coding our calendar. Fingers crossed we win! 🙂

  75. With 10 year old twins , I need to keep as organized as possible and Hilroy products are one of my favourites

  76. Ooo Oooo Pick me! I pretty much love everything back to school, but my fav is a new box of wax crayons 🙂

  77. This is the first year that my one and only will be in school. But I love back to school for myself too! New organizing items and easy to find school supplies help get you reorganized for the new year ahead!

  78. My favourite back to school supplies are planners… no wait, notebooks. No, post-it flags! Wait, pens!! 🙂

  79. LOVE LOVE LOVE anything white board! So much cleaner than a bunch of paper all over the place. Although I have been very intrigued by the mom calendar.

  80. I love new school supplies – especially fresh notebooks. To this day, there is nothing quite like opening up a brand new notebook and putting the first mark on the first page.

  81. I love school supplies … always have. Now I just call the office supplies instead. But my most favourite has to be a brand new notebook – limitless possibilities!

  82. As I kid I use to love to get new supplies for the beginning of school. I still love getting new notebooks and planners, and post-it flags!

  83. After being out of school for more than 10 years, I’m going back! and I couldn’t possibly be more excited.

    My favourite school supplies: Pens & notebooks. Brand new, needle point, dark blue ink pens and clean hardcover pristine white notebooks just bursting with possibilities. Makes me quiver with happy.

  84. For me it’s new pens, love opening up a new package of those.
    Now being a Mom to an elementary school child, I love anything to help with planning/organizing.
    All these goodies sure would come in handy.

  85. I have to say that my favourite back to school supplies are a big fridge calender and post it notes. I have 4 kids and both help save time and keep us on schedule!

  86. I love the agendas (planners) that is supplied by the schools. Although they’re for the students only, if you beg and plead with them long enough, they will sell you one.
