The other day I posted about two newer Black n' Red notebook offerings that I ordered.  My mistake was thinking that these were both soft cover versions of the Black n' Red line, but after having received them from Amazon I can now see that this was not in fact true.  I should also have been more inquisitive after a comment left on that post by one of our readers.  Above you can see the two items that actually showed up after I ordered.  On top is a back … [Read more...]

  So if you signed up for a chance to win the Platinum 3776 Century from our sponsor Massdrop, you are probably wondering where the announcement of the winner was since we promised it would be up today.  The simple answer is I messed up and had no idea what day it was today, so poor planning on my part results in a delayed announcement of the winner.  Once I coordinate the list of entries here and get it over to our Massdrop contact,  they will … [Read more...]

I meant to do a post at the half way point of the year to thank the other blogs out there that are kind enough to link to us, so I'm a little late on it now that July is almost over.  Here are the 5 blogs that have sent us the most readers this year to date.  To those bloggers, we send you a big THANKS!

This is an unplanned post today because our originally planned post is being held hostage by a faulty Internet connection.   Luckily I've got my Samsung Galaxy Note Tablet and the 4G connection to at least share something this lovely Friday. As you can see from the picture above, we have created an official Office Supply Geek Tumblr page.  This will be a place for us to quickly and easily share lots of cool office supplies and related things that we … [Read more...]

I hate to waste a day that is normally dedicated to a review, but not having a winner claim either of the prizes we are trying to give away for last month is something that we hate even more.  This is our last call for our winners from October.  If you didn't check your last email from us that might have ended up in your spam folder, or your "promotional" folder where Gmail might prefer to place it.  Depending on your time zone, you should have received … [Read more...]
