Well, Seattle we’re less than a month away from the first day of school for Grades 1-12.

And even if you don’t have school-aged kids begging for Fortnite backpacks or pink, sparkly notebooks, the beginning of the school year is a good time to punch-up your home-office game.

Here are some places to get great school/office supplies — plus, some spots to get new threads for your smarty pants kiddos.
