It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like…

BACK TO SCHOOL TIME!!!!

This time of year, my dining room table becomes “home” to new backpacks, clothes, teacher supplies, lunchboxes, fruit snacks, and anything else the boys will need for “back to school”. 

I “hate” the super hero type stuff, but I do have boys and they LOVE it, so I did relent and let them get super hero backpacks.  Oddly enough, they both picked out the same lunchbox for this year.

Don’t tell anyone, but I LOVE IT!  I LOVE buying school supplies and putting together little teacher goody bags!   So far for their teachers, I have a notepad, some stickers, and some bookplates.

Aren’t these shirts cute?  They were on clearance at Old Navy for 4.99.  I got to the register and they were only 3.99 each.  THEN, I “spun the wheel” and got 20% off and used my Old Navy card and received an additional 10% off.  Now THAT is what I call a BARGAIN!

More to come on our vacation and some back to school shopping!

  5. It's weird for us here. Kids actually start the new school year 3 different times--traditional calendar, multi-track, and single track (the last two are year-round calendars) so retailers have to go nuts because we have lots of back to school shopping weekends.

  6. As a kid, I dreaded the end of summer vacation and the return of school. But even so, I did enjoy going shopping with my mother for new school supplies.

    Congrats on the great deal at Old Navy. That's always a good feeling to get those additional discounts so the item ends up being practically free!
