Believe it or not Back to School is just around the corner. In fact many school districts where we live have already been to school for a few days.Here are some tips on saving money with your Back to School Shopping.

1. Keep all the ad papers that you get as they begin to advertise their Back to School specials. Many stores offer price matching. So if K-Mart advertises paper for 50 cents and Wal-Mart has it for 60 cents, then Wal-Mart would have to honor the lower price, as long as you take the advertisement with you.

2. When you find a super deal stock up for next year as well. A couple of years ago we found packs of paper for 25 cents. We still have about 30 packs left. Kids will always need certain things like paper, pens, pencils so don’t be afraid to stock up.

3. Don’t forget to shop the office supply stores. Office Max in particular is running some pretty good specials this year.

4. Shopping Online can save you money as well. Deal Taker has a nice back to school section that will help you out.

5. If you can hold off till school starts back you should be able to save even more money (that’s when we found the packs of paper for a quarter).
