Back-to-school budgeting tips
There are some things that you can do to make your money stretch a little bit further when it comes to back-to-school spending:
- Create a back-to-school budget;
- Use the back-to-school supply list provided by the school;
- Prioritize the needs over the wants;
- Take stock of what you already have – not everything needs to be new;
- Look for deals – do your research, comparison shop, shop “tax-free” days, use points and coupons;
- Start early – so that you have enough time to find the deals and don’t purchase things impulsively;
- Team up with other parents and buy in bulk.
