I remember one year looking for "Manila" paper - not Manila Envelopes but paper. I had NEVER heard of it (and I consider myself a fairly intelligent person). Not only Manila Paper but a specific size (11 x17 I think) and a specific quanity (50 sheets). I looked everywhere Walmart, Target, Office Max, Office Depot, Staples, you get the idea. Finally a neighbor said to try Hobby-Lobby (arts & crafts store), of course they DID carry it but were sold out!

That was for my now 8th grader when he was in kinder and I still get nightmares thinking about trying to find it!
