  56. Jessica H. says:

    For me: like the other posts, the t1 calculator I needed for college, but didn’t even hardly use for that math class. That was an ouch. Oh, and the computer I needed for college. I lived too far away from campus to use their labs all the time, and my electric typewriter died. That is right, I started college with an electric typewriter, and it wasn’t that long ago either! lol

    For my girls: we have been very lucky, state law mandates that the schools supply all classroom supplies, but we can help buy if we would like, so everything is optional. Clothes and shoes would be the most expensive. And shoes don’t last! They either outgrow them in 2 weeks or they fall apart!

    Oops, I wrote a book, sorry! lol
