That's what I did, too. The mirrors I found were "locker mirrors" and were on clearance for a quarter. Retailers apparently haven't caught on to the fact that schools don't allow kids to use lockers anymore, so all the crap they sell for lockers just sits on the shelf.

Yeah, they have lockers here too, but the kids are no longer allowed to use them. They do not dress down for PE, they do not shower, they do not store books in lockers in between classes. They have to haul all their books for the entire day in backpacks all day long.
