Back to school

Are you ready for your loved one to go back to school? Well if not, here are some basic things to consider when shopping to stay on budget.

* Do you have any supplies that you can use from last year? What clothes can still be worn for this year? Do you think their shoes or jackets can be used again this year or just for a few more months?

* Before you head off into the back to school rush, make out a shopping list of all needed items. Be sure to stick to your list.

* Be sure to compare cost at different stores to get the most product for your hard earned bucks.

* Choose a backpack or satchel that will be sturdy enough to last the entire school year.
