School’s In!
Well maybe not for a few weeks, but it is definitely time to prepare so that you are not scrambling later. Scrambling is code word for wasting money. If you are into getting the biggest bang for your buck then here are three ways to win this back to school season!
Look for hidden gems:
We all know about the usual stores for school supplies like Target, Walmart, Staples, and Office Max, but do you know about other hidden gems. Believe it or not salvage stores will have school supplies for a fraction of the cost. Goodwill is another place to check out. If you have a child in elementary school get your book bag for $5 at Five Below. My kids bags for the past two years have lasted. Five Below will get my money again this year!
Discount Clothes:
Many of you are probably thinking about buying back to school clothes. I want you to go further than that. Think about buying school and next summer clothing, that March-August timeframe. Right now stores like Target are trying to get all of their summer clothing out to make room for new merchandise so you can go in there right now and get clothes for $5 or less, $10 the most and stack up for next year!
School ends next June not this November.
I am sure the teachers reading this are going to love what I am about to say. As you take advantage of these deals make sure to buy enough school supplies to last until the end of the school year. Don’t just buy enough for a few months because that means you will have to buy more and by that time the sales will be gone and you will be back in the land of wasting money!
School may be a few weeks away, but your time is now to save money!
