It’s August and we are a few short weeks away from heading back to School. I grabbed my school age kids the other day and we went shopping at Walmart to pick up all the supplies that we need to get us started. While walking down the aisles I decided it would be helpful to some of you to see what items I have on my must purchase list to get you started for back to school shopping as well.
Top 5 MUST haves for Back to School this year.
-
Uniforms: Our school has uniforms so picking up an extra pair of pants or skirts along with our school shirt colors was very easy at Walmart. Our store always has the uniforms in stock that are needed for the local school, affordable and good quality, so why grab them anywhere else unless you have a strict uniform code like one of our schools.
-
Paper and Notebooks: Trust me, no matter what age and class your little one will be in this new school year, they always need lots of paper. I swear my kids go through notebook paper like there is no tomorrow. I always stock up this time of the year because it’s always a better deal and why pay more later if you don’t have to.
-
Lunchboxes: I let each of the kids pick a new lunch box at the beginning of the school year, makes them feel special and they get excited about bringing their lunch from home. School lunches are expensive and with a little couponing and sale shopping I can create fun lunches all on my own.
-
Wipes & Sanitizer: This is a big one, I go nowhere without my Wet Ones or sanitizer and I always have few extra in the kids lunchboxes and book bags, so stock up and make sure you grab a few extra boxes of the Wet Ones, they are currently on rollback and I’m sure you can find a coupon in the newspaper or on coupons.com
-
Snacks: This is the time to stock up on snacks, individual snacks are always reduced and on rollback at Walmart for Back to school, a lot of them even have coupons in the Sunday paper making it an even better deal, my kids really enjoy the Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Crackers and since they come in individual snack packages makes them perfect for lunches.
There you have my 5 must buy items while shopping at Walmart this Back to School season, what do you have on your MUST buy list? Would love to hear it, share it with me below.
Oh, one more thing I saw earlier, be sure to enter for your chance to win a year’s supply of Wet Ones® for your home and your child’s classroom, plus $1000 cash! How awesome would that be? I know this germ freak would love it!!!
