I got an awesome deal at Office Depot
They had packages of pens that were originally $23.95 marked down to $2.49 so I bought all 69 packages saving over $2000

You better hope they weren't marked down for a reason and hope they don't dry up on you. I've had that happen. I did sorta the same thing years ago and was sorry I bought that many.

LOL.. Well, maybe she'll get lucky... They can't expect you can use these in two weeks surely. But I will tell you I would be down there Pens in hand... Newly open and unopened packages.... And I tell you they would take them back... LOL... They don't call us Florida "witches" for nothing down here. LOL

Your math is a bit off.
$23.95*69=$1652.55-$171.81=$1480.74 in savings.
Just for kicks how many pens in a package?

Going to Office Depot TOMORROW to check
I buy good pens, and people steal them ALL THE TIME.
But I'd still rather buy more good pens than try to work with crap pens every day. 
I'll be stalking my OD clearance asile tomorrow.

Assuming 12 pens in a pack, that's 828 pens
If I wre you, I would sell all but 10 packs on eBay or Craig's List for $10 a pack and make a profit.
I close 60 loans a month and 3 black and 3 blue pens last at least that long. If I bought 828 pens, they would last 11.5 years and who know what I will be doing then?
IMO, your deal isn't such a deal in that volume.
