Back to School Shopping Tips

Hi everyone,

Today is going to be the first post in a back to school series that I am doing because believe it or not it is already back to school season and I know that back to school shopping can be tiring so these are a few tips to keep it as easy on you as possible.

So lets get started!

Tip 1: reuse anything you can...

If you already have a good condition backpack, notebook, or binder why buy another one. The back to school supplies you buy will generally last you at least a year and if it lasts you longer than why not reuse it for the next year. I managed to get 2 full years out of the foxy jean rainbow checkerboard backpack from target ( when it was still in Canada). But also remember not to use anything that is in too weak of a condition.

Tip 2: Sometimes just buy it plain...

You don't have to always buy the pretty binders or the glittery notebooks, because with your imagination you can create a binder or notebook better than any one you buy at the store plus you can customize it to fit your personality ( and I will probably be posting a diy school supplies decorating post to help you out).

Tip 3: They Trick You...

The Staedtler pencil company claims to have the number one pencil or crayola may think they have the best crayons but the truth is they're all the same ( well most of them). You may think that one company is better but most of the time the store brand makes just as good a pencil as Staedtler at a better price. So be careful about that.

Tip 4: Stick to the List...

You know what you will need for school so there is no need to buy stuff you don't well need. For an example why do you need 10 pens if your teacher only asked for 5 or 5 binders when you only have 3 subjects that need binders. It is definitely a waste of money to spend money on things you don't need. But if you find  a deal where 5 pens is cheaper than 1 go for it just to have some extra stuff for your pen/pencil cup.

I hope this helped make your back to school shopping a little less stressful and look forward for more back to school videos to come.
