SCHOOL SCRIBBLERS

It’s hard to believe how quickly the summer passed by. Yes, it’s almost time for P.E.I. students to head back to class. While those words may simultaneously strike fear into the heart of Island kids and elation for their parents, returning to school is an annual, unavoidable fact of life. No matter what you think of hopping back on the bus, there’s always the fun of back-to-school shopping to do in the weeks leading up to the big first day. With that in mind, we scoured the city for prices on a four-pack of 32page Hilroy scribblers to help you with that last-minute supply shopping.
