School supplies: Canadian prices, warranties and delivery

Updated 3 November 2026

School supplies in Canada cost roughly CA$4 to CA$150 right now, depending on whether you need a few pencils or a full class kit. Most single items sit between CA$5 and CA$30, and bulk packs of 24 to 48 kits run CA$108 to CA$152. For current offers, describe your list in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Warranties and what to check

Retailers must offer statutory minimum warranties on most consumer products, according to Saskatchewan's consumer affairs office. The federal Office of Consumer Affairs describes manufacturer's and extended warranties as different types. Before you buy a calculator or a kit, ask which warranty applies and whether it comes from the maker or the seller, and keep the receipt.

Metric sizes and how prices are quoted

Use metric in your request: lead width in millimetres, as on the 0.7 mm BIC pencils sellers list, notebook and ruler sizes in centimetres, and the exact number of pieces in a kit. Prices are quoted per item or per kit, and the figures above are in Canadian dollars.

Winter and delivery between cities

Winter runs from December to February across the country, so set a delivery date for the week you need the supplies, not the week you ordered. Name your city, Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary or Ottawa, when you ask for a price, because shipping from a seller in one city to another can change the total.

What to write in your request

Say which school year and grade the list covers, the child's gender if the set is for a girl or a boy, the size and brand you prefer, the quantity, and whether new or used is fine. Add your budget in CA$ and your delivery city, and attach a photo of the list.

Describe the list in your own words in a chat on BlaBlaPrice, and add a photo if you have one. The AI reads the request, asks for missing details and looks through sellers' websites in Canada, then shows the prices it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose whom to contact. Browse Baby & Kids for more children's items.
