Everyone's talking about 'Back to School' right now. Summer is wrapping up and teacher in-service is well underway is many parts of the country. I'm sure most of us with non-school aged kiddos aren't paying too close attention to the wheeling and dealing centered around the back to school crowd, but maybe we should be.
Over the next few weeks I'll be keeping you posted with the best deals on items that are either a) for the under 5 set or b) items that we all need.
One of the best times to shop here in Tennessee will be this weekend (August 2-4) when school supplies, clothing and computers will be tax free! For the details on Tax Free Weekend click here . I know I'll be heading out to do some shopping. In TN our sales tax is 9.75% so shopping during this weekend is like getting a 10% discount right off the top!
Now so far I haven't seen too many phenomenal deals, but that doesn't mean there's not anything out there worth shopping for! Here are a few deals worth stopping in for.
- Office Max. They have a bag in your Sunday paper that gets you 20% off of anything that fits in the bag (some exclusions apply). The best deal with this (in my opinion) is ink. Ink isn't cheap and rarely goes on deep discount. Stock up now to print coupons for a few months.
- Toys R Us Crayola Crayons are $0.25 a pack when you buy for (limit 8). I stock up during back to school sales for my toddler. If you have a tot you know how many broken crayons you can go through. Remember to save your broken Crayolas for a craft project I'll be featuring in August!
