Staples has that commercial with the man leaping around the store to the "It's the most wonderful time of the year" song. That's me, without the kids. When I was still in school, I would eagerly await September to be able to load up on supplies: duotangs and notebooks, pencils and pens and post-its - stationery appealed to me.
Staples SMELLS like new paper. It is addictive. I spend way too much time here on the strength of that alone. Now that I'm older I search the hallowed halls for report covers and leather business folders, rolodexs (not really) and binders and file folders. I still get tweely shaped post-its - who can resist the hearts or speech bubbles? Not I.
The staff are also very helpful, and they have a decent electronics section which is unfortunately a little lacking in Macware. Regardless, it is my go-to for printer ink and conferences. Staples really strives to be a stationery destination, and when you factor in the convenience of this location I'd say they go above and beyond.
