These discounts aren't "just" for Florida teachers, but I thought they would make a good contribution to the list, as they are available to all teachers in the United States:

Great list US Recall News. I do appreciate your contribution. I shop at Michaels, Staples, Office Depot and many of the other stores that offer discounts for teachers. I only knew about Staples and Office Depot so now I can save even more money.
