Back to School Shopping Guide



As we are enjoying our last month of summer, it's time to gear up for back to school! Here is our shopping guide for back to school sales. 

There are some good deals here but also you have to watch out because a lot of similar items are going to be at Walmart for .98 cents vs. $1 at Dollar Tree. It's more about convenience shopping here, but I typically find better deals at big box stores. 

Back to School at Target comes with some pretty good deals. Backpacks start at $14.99, lunchboxes start at $9.99, and supplies are BOGO 25% off. You can save another 5% with a redcard, which is a bonus for school supplies that are typically all marked around the same at competitors. If you need to grab some back to school clothing, polos start at $5 and jeans are starting at $8. The prices are low, but you can take advantage of Target's clothing promo for $5 off $25 or $10 off $40 by using code KIDS. 

Back to school at Walmart looks a lot similar to Target. Uniform basics start at $6.97 for a polo so Target right now is a better deal. Backpacks show a really big variety on the website and have good price points with many on sale. 

Amazon is the queen of price matching. They have a mega section for back to school and if you can't find it here it doesn't exist! School supplies are broken up by age to help you navigate. For uniforms, you can buy packs of polos to save and find deals on name brands like nautica, UA, US Polo, etc., if that is your thing. 

So this is for clothing only, but you can grab great deals on uniforms. All polos are $4.99 and under, so if you don't have a Target redcard to save the extra 5% there, check out this deal to save that one cent - hey, every cent counts! Backpacks are up to 60% off, along with uniform dresses. Pants are $7.98 or less and tops start at $3.98. Right now, until Sept. 10th, if you spend $20 you earn $10 in place cash. 

Buy a backpack and save 20% off school supplies. This is a pretty good deal if you need a new backpack, as lots of items are already on sale for back to school.  


For Moms and Dads
Back to school comes with schedule changes, after school activities, and being on the go! Grab a 6qt 7in 1 instapot for $49 for a limited time to get dinner on the table quick! This sale is for 3 days only!



Verdict: If you are going to leave your house and have a redcard, Target is the place to shop. With the better deals on uniforms thanks to their current kids clothing promo code, they are currently the cheapest. If you don't want to drag all the kiddos out, then stick with Amazon or shopping Target online. If you regularly shop at The Children's Place, you can earn cash for every $20 spent, so if you will use it in the future, this is a nice plus to shopping there!
