Hi all.

I just found these great drawers at Joann's for 1/2 off! They are only $35 which I think is a steal for these and for the number of drawers.

I am thinking I'm going to use them for workboxes, or workdrawers for my kiddos (I bought two sets, one for the K and one for the 2nd grader).

But they could be used for a lot of great things. Anyways, it looks like they are available online at that price too.

Those are almost the same ones I have. I bought mine at Office Depot. We are really liking them for our "workboxes"

Thanks so much for alerting us to this - I ran out and got one today, and already like it so much I'm going back tomorrow for another one!

This is what we use for our school stuff, and we love them. RUN to JoAnn's. Because that is about 1/2 what we paid for ours.

Kacky - how do you find the drawers on these - do you find they run smoothly and don't fall out? I bought a colored version of these from Costco a few years ago and was really disappointed as the drawers kept falling out.

Another thing - if anyone is going to get them you can get a homeschool discount at Joanns (on sale items out_ - just take your HSLDA card or other h/s id and they will issue you a card.

They are smooth and I wiggled them real good and they didn't slip or fall. If you pull really hard you could pull them all the way out, but they seem good to me.

I totally didn't think they'd give me a discount since it was already discounted...ugh! But we are going back today for some fabric, so I'll try it out!
