I headed to Seattle today to hit several stores in search of a new poster or two. One of them had gone out of business and the other was closed. Guess I should have called ahead. Once I sadly verified that Academic Aids had also closed its doors for good, I decided to head across the bridge to Bellevue and see what Lakeshore Learning had to offer. What the heck - it was already 4 PM, traffic was going to suck anyway.
Not much to offer as they cater mainly to the elementary school crowd but I did find a few things - almost everything was 20% off. The final slap. I stopped at Staples on the way home and asked the woman if they had already had their "teacher appreciation day". Her reply was "It was this past Saturday. . .but we still have some bags of stuff." She was my hero!
