School is back in session, and we know that many of you will be starting the new school year by shopping for your supplies. With all of the different types, shopping can get confusing. We want to help make it easier! Below are three ways to shop for your school:
-1) Do research on what items you need before going out to shop
-2) Create a budget and stick with it when making purchases
-3) Shop at stores with student discounts
Shop at the right time: Shopping during the end-of-year sales will help you get things at a cheaper price. If you shop earlier, then it’s likely prices will be higher!
Be patient when shopping: The best deals don’t go on sale until January or February, so if there are certain items you want to buy this year, make sure they’re not sold out before Christmas arrives.
Bring cash with you: There are many benefits to using cash while purchasing items for your child’s education since credit cards are often not accepted at schools.
