Although these tips may seem relatively common sense
, they are often overlooked when planning and preparing for the new school year. By sticking to the ideas outlined above, it is possible to dramatically reduce the budget allocated for school supplies , general classroom resources and school locker equipment. There are always going to be shops and online sellers offering poor quality items however at low prices, and this would be the one pitfall to watch out for. Buying low quality items often results in a double spend as they invariably need replacing so they actually end up costing a lot more than slightly more expensive but high quality items. Watch out for this and only shop with reputable suppliers who ideally have good customer feedback and some excellent testimonials which can often be found on their website. If necessary, see if you can contact one or two of the testimonials.
