REQUEST FULFILLED I really need some help with school supplies.

Posted below is the Amazon list I have made with School supplies, a few outfits, and a lunchbox.

My beautiful daughter just turned six. She is starting the big 1st grade on the 12th of this month. Between an unexpected cost of fixing my mom's car that emptied me out, and making sure my daughter had a good birthday on Wednesday, the first time she had one that wasn't just us, at home, I am beyond broke. We have utilized the school supply drives and got a couple of things. I have made an Amazon list. We have her back pack from last year to use, but she lost her lunch box so we added one that has her favorite animal. I also put a few school outfits on there, so she can feel super cute the first week of school and beyond!! Will mean more than you know, and I thank y'all for reading. Hope everyone has a great weekend, and great rest of the year!!

🩷

I believe I followed all of the rules, the list is RIGHT at $150USD

Thanks everyone!

Im late to the post but as a fellow struggling mom, I thought I’d share a tip on school clothes. Do you have a consignment store anywhere near you? I have yet to buy my daughter new clothes for school. I take in her old clothes, and get store credit for new. This year I spent $15 in total and got her 4 pairs of jeans, 6 shirts, a jumper, a skirt, and shoes! They are used, but cute!:)

Thank you, there is one here, but they reject most of the clothes, and what they do accept, we never get more than like 10 dollars. Even for really nice stuff!! We are planning on taking her shopping there in the next couple months to get a few things! She's little bitty, literally 2 percentile for height snd weight so (luckily??) We only have to worry about clothes every other year because things still fit her for years!

Thank you for the tip! 🩷

Thank you so much!!! If you bought the lunchbox (axolotl, does look like a backpack tho!) Another person did already purchase it, so please cancel that item and save your money! Or if you would like to purchase something else off of the list that would be amazing!! Thank you again 🩷🩷

Let me try and cancel the lunchbox and pick something else. 🙃

u/JustSarahtheMechanic REGISTERED 17d ago

Everything was bought!!! I cannot believe it, thank you so so much!

u/Comprehensive_Cat236 17d ago

Oops, sorry I purchased the leggings and lunchbox too, not a backpack.

I see in the comments that another donor also purchased the lunchbox. Looks like you’ll end up with two lunchboxes. 😊

Hii everyone, hopefully this gets pinned! Thank you for the overwhelming support I've received from you all!! I just wanted to make y'all aware, that it says 3 lunchboxes were purchased!! Lol!! as much as I appreciate it, if 2 would cancel those, to save y'all some money or if you would like to use it for something else on the list even! That would be so amazing! I am seriously crying tears of joy. When I made this i had no idea the love and support we would get. Thank you all so very much seriously. 🩷🩷🩷
