I am absolutely obsessed with Operation Christmas Child! I love the idea of being able to fulfill the great commission right from home! I've decided to do a monthly Operation Christmas Child Roundup to show you all the deals I found over the month for OCC (Operation Christmas Child), and hopefully give you some ideas for your own boxes!
As the leaves start turning brown and cardboard school buses start lining the center aisle at Walmart, the time comes once more for back to school sales. This is when I like getting any pens, pencils, crayons, colored pencils, or anything school related for my boxes. This is when school and office supplies hit their rock bottom prices for the year, with a few rare exceptions. I haven't been able to take too much advantage of it yet this year, but I'm hoping to get in there early September. Actually, I don't think I've been to the store all month. Hence the really small roundup, sorry about that! This is also the time of year when they start clearancing their summer stock. It's not unusual to find $1 t-shirts and even shoes at Walmart. A friend of mine just found $0.50 flip flops and $0.10 jump ropes. I'm jealous!
While I didn't make it to the store my personal OCC shopper (AKA mom) made it there a few times. We have this deal going, I watch her kids so she can take grandma to town, and she watches for OCC stuff for me. Works out pretty well!
Not very much this month, oh well, I can make up for it next month!

| 24 pack of pens at Walmart for $0.75, which comes to just over $0.03 a piece, I didn't think that was bad. |

| A jump rope my mom threw in her bag at the local thrift shop, new in the package, so it works well. |
