I know what you are thinking. What do I know about school supplies? Well, I am going to tell you. The shopping season has started several months ago. There are some places like Wal-mart who have had sales like crazy. Sometimes if you look at local papers you can find sales on the basics at even drug stores like Walgreens or CVS like you would with a Walmart/K-mart.
There are many parents who check the second hand stores for bargains. There are some parents who home school. There are resources on the web. There is the aggrivation because of some on the listed items are used by the entire class.
Hand wipes and tissues are on the list. Some parents balk because their child hardly gets to use them because someone else uses it up. Some say this puts a burden on the parents who can buy the supplies.
One way to save is to shop online. One way to save is join something like upromise. Not only can you save on office supplies which we all need for school but other ways of saving for college. Online textbook sellers sometimes give better rates than the college itself.
One labor saver for school is a program used to write reports. There are programs out there where much of the format work is done for you. There is reference point which makes it for most word processors for the APA and MLA formats. They even have the books.
