Deductions - Buying supplies for work

This past year, the company I work for has had a bit of a cash flow problem. I took it upon myself to buy a few supplies out of my pocket. I was not reimbursed for these, and I don't use the said supplies in my job. They are used by co-workers. Can I count the cost of these supplies as a part of job expenses on my Itemized Deductions? Any information I need to know here is very appreciated!
