Our each is a package of (2) steel tech rulers. One is 6” x 1/32” for the first 2-1/2” then 1/64” for the next 1/2” then 1/16” for the last 3”. The other is 150mm x 0.5mm. Both have sliding markers/pocket clips, and both have mm:inch tables on the reverse side. You’ll need excellent eyesight.

It’s a cornucopia of stencils. All shapes, no alphabets. You’ll get a profusion of (8) clear acrylic stencil sheets, including: a raft of ovals; a preponderance of squares; a farrago of circles, hexagons, pentagons and triangles; a collection of a bunch of shapes, including trapezoids; a roomful of interior design shapes; a melange of electronic symbols; and an assortment we can’t altogether identify, but might be for printed circuit design. All have mm rules along at least one edge.

Our favorite oxymoronic item. It’s a series of flat political maps of the world mounted on a 3” cube instead of a globe. The spindle goes into Antarctica and the whole thing stands just under 6” tall, spinning on an approx 4” dia base. Could be the perfect birthday present for your flat-earther uncle Morty.

Pocket protectors are for nerds (like us) but sheet protectors are for smart and sensible people (like you). Not bed sheet protectors! The (100) sheet protectors in this package are for your important documents. At 11" x 9-1/4" with reinforced edges and (11) holes punched in them (so they’ll fit any binder), these things are priceless at less than five bucks for the lot. Acid-free and archival-safe, too. javascript:;

These are very nice 48-page, 5” x 7” cardboard-bound notebooks with themes and some unobtrusive notes/formats that will be easy to ignore if you’re not a Starship captain, artist or astronomer. You pick: the United Federation Captain’s log has a date/location entry on each lined page and fold-out info on the back cover, like a warp-speed conversion table; the Artist’s notebook has unlined ecru pages with an assortment of frame styles as borders and fold-out shading, perspective and composition info on the back cover; the Stargazer’s notebook has 1/4” rules plus a lightly printed 3-1/4” dia circle with 30-degree markings to chart the sky, plus a fold-out back cover with an astrolabe and constellation chart.

The low-profile, approx. 5" wide steel clip stands just 5/16" above the 1/8" thick natural-tan pressboard of this trim clipboard. Measures approx. 12" x 9". Made to slip conveniently into a briefcase, but also has a hole on the backside of the clip for easy hanging.

No self-respecting number cruncher can afford to be seen without one of these fashion classics. We'll send you (3) classic white vinyl pocket protectors in the traditional 5-1/2" x 3-1/2" size. The front flap is blank so you can add your own name, business or drawing of your favorite Star Trek character. Order quickly; It's only a question of time before these are seen on the runways in Milan.

This whimsical pack of (30) postcards measures, unsurprisingly, post-card size 5-3/4" x 3-15/16", with non-duplicating images of gravy and bacon, Nikola Tesla, narwhals, spontaneous human combustion, boxing kangaroos, infinity and taxidermy, among many others of that ilk. Those ilks. Whatever--just buy 'em and stop asking so many questions. Blurbs on the back.

From Helix®, this 18" long aluminum U.S. Standard triangular architects' ruler/scale has color-coded facings and is divided into 3. 1-1/2, 1, 3/4, 3/8, 3/16, 3/32, 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 inch per foot. Yes, you can use it even if you're not an architect.

What we have here are 96-sheet, white genuine Post-It note pads, 4” wide x just shy of 3” tall with adhesive strips on the top edge. Plus, for mysterious reasons, the samples we received have letters or names (mostly girl names) strung across the top margin in pink, blue or green. Just ignore them and play a little Post-It note roulette. We'll stick our hand in the over-sized box and pull out 10. That’s why they call it surplus and that is why genuine Post-It notes are this cheap.

Like Martha Stewart if you poured honey all over her. Also like these little 4-1/4” x 3-1/4” hardbound books of art-themed sticky notes honoring Bob (The Joy of Painting) Ross. The approx (240) notes are in large and small sizes with Bob, his easel or landscape scenes like the ones he painted.

Back by popular demand! Stick the dull, but leaded end of your wooden pencil into the left nostril of this nose and twist clockwise. You will be rewarded with a shiny sharp point on the pencil and a curl of shavings on your desk, lap or floor. Pretty good performance for a life sized, flesh colored piece of hard plastic!! We'll send you (3) in assorted skin tones. If you want to sharpen things up around the office or home, send for this item, and prove you have a nose for great deals!!

Sorry, like lunches, there are no free paper clips, but these 1-1/2” x 1-1/4” steel butterfly clips are dirt cheap at under four cents each, and you can’t hardly get anything for that. You’ll get (50) clips per package, and we’ll send you (2) packages.

Because this brown packing tape (aka carton sealing tape) was made in Canada, out of respect for our neighbors to the north, we’re going to give you the dimensions in metric. Haha, just kidding! The tape’s about 216 feet long, and extra-wide at 2-7/8” (aka 3” in the office-supply world). You’ll get (2) rolls, which will make your tape order a double-extra-wide. The Trailer Park Boys would approve.

Our each is a half-pound bag of rubber bands in assorted sizes and equally assorted colors, and how many is that, you ask? Darned if we know. Looks like about a third of a gazillion, but that's just an estimate. You won't run out anytime soon.

No, no, no--nobody likes to see a pooch penned up. These are ball-point pens inside plastic dogs. They’re long, with spots, like dachshund-dalmatian crosses, but in pink, blue, white or yellow. We’ll pick (2) different colors for you. Pull the tail on the 4-1/2” long dogs, expose the ball-point, and bring a little canine whimsy to your memo, love poem, grocery list or resignation letter.

Let it all show with this transparent white plastic attache case/portfolio. Measures 12” x 8-1/2” x 3” with a black plastic catch and carrying handle. Comes folded flat, but locks open via (4) tabs. We like it for travelling when you briefly need a briefcase but don’t want to carry one around for the rest of the trip. Add a scarf liner and it converts it to an attractive purse, and a couple pieces of paper and scotch tape convert it to non-transparent.

You could use this jumbo clip to close your bag of chips, and you could write your name on it, or slip your business card into the slot on the front, so your family and co-workers will know to keep their grubby little fingers off your snacks. It's a giant 6" wide x 5" plastic clip with a large magnet on the back and it'll clamp down and hold on your fridge as many as (25) sheets of paper all at once, if you're not into salty snacks. Stick it to the fridge or file cabinet and use it to hold shopping lists, overdue expense receipts, love notes or gentle threats to family, co-workers or both. We'll pick one in red or blue, neither of which will match your fridge or file cabinet, probably.
