You know it’s almost time to go back to school when the
sales start, discount codes arrive in email and school uniforms are on store
racks. Forbes Living shares some tips on how to save money on back to school
needs.
Shop early. Even if the school district has not sent out a
list of needed supplies for the year, hit the discount stores early for the
widest variety and the best prices.
Stock up.
If your state offers a tax-free weekend on school supplies, wait
until then to stock up.
Do your kids need some cool new duds to start the school
year? Go online and check out some of the fashion resale stores like
thredup.com and moxiejean.com. Cool styles can be found for less than the
department or boutique stores charge.
The Forbes Living talk show also uses smart phone apps for
favorite stores to find special sales, coupons and discount codes for back to
school items.
True fashionistas though will find creative ways to
re-purpose clothing from previous seasons. Fashion is evolving and will come
full circle with some modifications. Take advantage of scarves, hats, leggings
and other ways to turn some cast-offs into something very cool. There are a myriad
of ways to save money on back to school needs. Use all of them!
