School is starting and it can be daunting to prepare for, making a to do list can save you both time and money.
Your list should look like this (add or subtract items according to your needs).
- Books
- Backpack
- Clothing/Uniforms
- Lunchbox/Snack-pack
- Supplies (pens, pencils, notepads, etc.)
All of this can add up quickly, so pick up items on sale throughout the year.
A nice way to say goodbye to summer and hello to the school year is by taking a vacation the week before it starts. You come back refreshed and ready to tackle another year.
*TECH TIP* You can look on-line to find sales for the school items you need and for vacation deals. It is also a good way to locate hard to find items/supplies.
*ORGANIZATION TIP* Label a box/bin and place it in a closet. You can place the items you pick up throughout the year in it making it easier to locate all your supplies when school starts.
