Since the merge with Office Max, Office Depot no longer allows teachers to purchase a larger number of sale items than the general public :(

Many Office Depot stores have a Star Teacher discount of around 10% and have a teacher day coming up soon where teachers can get free teacher supplies and additional coupons. I got a free lamenating machine last year by going to their teacher breakfast.

Apple also offers teacher discounts. If you're school is not already registered, it's easy to do so. They offer a variety of specials, sales, freebies and discounts. It depends what they're running when you call.
