subject: Back to School Sales [print this page] Did you know that the second best time of the year to shop is during the Back-To-School sales? These sales are generally geared towards those that have school-aged kids up to young adults going off to college; however, this time of year is great for stocking up on office supplies such as binders, copy paper, pens, and folders. Drug stores, discount department stores, and office supply stores all have your needs and your wallet in mind.
Even folks that don't have school-aged children to send off to school could take advantage of the once-yearly unique sales.
What kinds of things do you need to replace or update around the house? Microwaves, bath towels, curtains, pillows and bedding are all things that can be found on sale. As an added bonus, the colors are bright and fun much harder to find at other times of the year.
Why wait until New Year's to get organized? Take advantage of the sales on storage totes, dry erase or cork boards, filing systems, and even small furniture.
Mens and womens clothes can also be found at a discount; not to mention pajamas, socks and other undergarments. Maybe you just need to spruce up your wardrobe with a new pair of shoes. Suitcases, handbags, and other accessories are at a yearly low as well.
Some planning ahead can save you time and money. By taking advantage of the fall sales, you can re-do a room or update your wardrobe at the fraction of the cost. Who says Back-To-School is for kids only?
