Here are three tips to save money on back to school supplies…
1. Make a list and a budget. You’ll usually get a list from the school–compare it to the retail ads and scout out what’s on sale. A lot of stores have coupons on their apps and websites, and in their weekly circulars.
2. Take inventory of what you already have. To avoid buying things you don’t need, check to see if you have pens, pencils, or notebooks left over from last year that you can still use.
3. Buy used or refurbished items. Electronics can be expensive. And some items, like graphing calculators, won’t be needed for more than a couple years. So check sites like eBay, Amazon, Apple, and Dell for their refurbished deals.
