Yes, it’s true: back-to-school season is fast approaching. And if you’re hoping to get ahead of the crowds when shopping this year, then you’ll want to take advantage of Walmart’s back-to-school deals right now.

Walmart currently has a bunch of school supplies available, many of which are on sale for under $1, so you can stock up ahead of the day-before-school-starts panic. From pens and pencils to binders and notebooks, you can shop for everything on your kid’s supplies list without breaking the bank or having to (kindly) elbow your way through the masses at your local office supplies store. And teachers will want to take advantage of these deals, too!

Here are some of the best picks from the Walmart back-to-school sale.

Crayola Classic Crayons, originally $1.44

Elmer’s Washable Liquid School Glue, originally $.97

Liquid Elmer’s glue is essential for all sorts of arts and crafts tasks, and it’s also an ingredient in lots of homemade slime recipes. Now’s the time to stock up.

BIC Cristal Xtra Smooth Stic Ball Pen, originally $7.28

Available in black, blue, and red ink, the BIC Xtra Smooth pens are a must-have for teachers and students alike. It’s easy to keep tabs on how much ink you have left thanks to the “Cristal” body and the ink is so smooth you can write for hours on end without your hand breaking a sweat.

Or, skip the sharpener and pick up a pack of the BIC Xtra Strong mechanical pencils instead. This colorful variety pack comes with 24 pencils loaded with 0.9 mm No. 2 lead that is supposedly “break resistant.”

If your kid needs a 3-ring binder for every class, then check out the Pen+Gear binders that are going for just over $3 each. They come in a bunch of fun colors so your child can color code their classes.

Sterilite Small Pencil Box, originally $4.00

Your student can keep all their supplies in one place with the Sterilite pencil box, which is being sold at Walmart for under $1. It’s big enough to store pencils, pens, markers, erasers, and any other bits and bobs your kid acquires throughout the school year.

Pen+Gear 2-Pocket Poly Folder, originally $1.00

Another great tool for color coding classes is the Pen+Gear 2-pocket poly folder. These folders can either be clasped into binders or used on their own and your kid can choose from a handful of fun, bright colors.
