Hard to believe but one month from now, my kids will be heading back to school. Didn’t summer vacation just start? This year I have one starting 1st grade, one as a freshmen in High school and one as a freshmen in college. Time sure flies but the one thing that stays always the same … They need school supplies, new clothes, shoes and all the fun goodies back to school must haves.
This year, just like the many years before I shop sales and try to find the best deal. The last few years I found pretty good deals at Kohl’s and this year wasn’t any different. The one thing that was different and I was a bit surprised, I found school supplies at kohl’s. YES! Paper, markers, pens and anything else you may need for your supply list. I loved it, making Kohl’s my one stop shop for everything from Dorm supplies to new outfits, School uniforms, lunchboxes and book bags and anything in-between the kids thought they had to have. Did you know that office Max has teamed up with kohl’s to provide the school supplies in store and of course they are at the very best price just like all the other items you find at Kohl’s. Oh and you can earn Kohl’s cash, don’t forget that!
My goal this year for my daughter was to keep her back to school budget at $300 and that would have to include everything she would need for the year. I think I did pretty well. Check out all the Back to School items I was able to get.
I got her all the essentials that she would need to have a good start in 1st grade. Since she is on strict uniform policy I got her 4 shorts/skirts, 4 school shirts, a school dress, pair of tennis shoes, underwear, backpack and lunch box. I also had to splurge on a few non-school items because the price was just that good and I knew she needed a few fun outfits besides the school uniforms. I grabbed her a few flip flops and yes, I got two different sizes, they are soo cute and I wanted her to wear them for a while, we are in Florida, what can I say. I also got her a few skirts for no uniform days. All in all I’m very pleased with my purchase and my grand total came to … are you ready?
Yup… just under $300. I ended up spending $296.11 saved $274.87 and earned $50 in Kohl’s cash. I can’t wait to go back and use the Kohl’s cash for the school supplies as soon as we get our list from the school. Once I have that done, I know we are all ready for back to school with #Kohls101.
Are you ready for back to school yet? Do you think it will be a time saver for you to pick up all your supplies and uniforms in one stop shop thanks to #Kohls101? Would love to hear your thoughts about it and maybe you already did your shopping at Kohl’s would love to hear all about that too.
For more deals be sure to visit your local Kohl’s or online and don’t forget to follow on Twitter and Facebook

I had NO idea Kohl’s sold school supplies. I have bought shoes, backpacks and other stuff for school there, but not supplies! I love that and will be checking that out this year for sure!

Kohl’s is amazing. I didn’t know they sold school supplies, but it doesn’t surprise me. They sell everything! AND it’s super affordable.

I loved back to school shopping. I just hate my daughters grew up. Maybe I will shop at Kohl’s and just donate a few things. Thanks for inspiring me 🙂

It is going to be SO convenient to get all our school stuff in one place rather than hopping from store to store! I love that they offer uniforms now too as so many schools are moving that way.

Awesome! I love Kohl’s! You rounded up some awesome deals.
Kathleen Garber says
Our stores don’t have back to school stuff in yet but I’m sure they will any day now. I am not ready for back to school. My kids have been in a summer school program that ends this week so it hasn’t even been much like Summer for us yet. I’m looking forward to August which will be more laid back for us. Love that backpack!
