Most companies have a list of "approved items" that they will order from the office supply store and deliver to you. Some companies are very generous, some have 10 basic items. What's on your "wish list" that you'd love to use, your company won't buy for you, and you have maybe occasionally bought yourself? Be specific. Also, say what kind of company you work for (i.e. law office, hospital, etc.) and rate your company's office supply policy as

"Generous" - a whole office store catalog--you can order anything
"Average" - 25-250 or so items from an office store catalog, you can order any of those
"Limited" - a list of 25 or fewer items

I used to work for a company with offices in several Midwestern cities including Chicago, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Columbus etc.

A partner in Chicago refused to allow post-it notes. I honestly do not know why. As you might imagine, they became highly sought-after contraband. "Dude, you're goin' to Indy next week?! Can you score me some post-it notes?"

because of the fact there isn't any earnings in it. those agencies many times sell their products on the instant from their internet site besides as to opt for retailers, commonly boutique shops or smaller quite professional chains like puppy components Plus. there is amazingly minimum markup if offered in a save or on line, yet a mass keep like Wal-Mart could opt for a markup of a important proportion, like 15%-30% to make it worth having on the cabinets. they are able to't sell it for that plenty because of the fact no person will purchase it on the fee. Plus, this kind of people who save at Wal-Mart many times think of that Ol' Roy and Pedigree is high-quality food and could not purchase a greater high priced food, never innovations that it will supply their dogs a greater effectual high quality of existence. that's my take, anyhow.
