3 Ways to Save Money & Maximize Back-to-School Shopping! by Tara Churchill

It’s that time of year again – school supply shopping! When you do your shopping this year, consider picking up a few extra supplies. Take advantage of the penny sales and discounted supplies for several reasons:

• Consider donating a few extra supplies. There are always kids and/or schools in need.
• For less than a dollar, you can occupy a child for hours. Ridiculously cheap notebooks, folders and crayons can create a simple go-to kit for your child or guest.
• Pick up some extra notebooks for the kitchen, car or sports bag. It's a great way to make notes for any occasion – for only pennies!

Who says you need to have a kid going back to school to enjoy those sales?
