With “back to school” in the air, every store is cashing in on this shopping spirit. Because of the massive discounts on school supplies this is the perfect time of year to stock up on home-office needs. Yesterday we covered Smart Cookie Angela’s advice on how students can get organized to stay debt free. But what about the rest of us – with back-to-School deals everywhere, can we cash in if we aren’t a student.? Oh yes we can!
There are big markdowns on electronics, office supplies and even clothes during this time which gives shoppers an opportunity to take advantage of 40-50 percent discounts. Mega-stores like Office Depot and Wal-Mart offer some of the steepest discounts for shoppers. This provides everyone, school or not, an opportunity to buy discounted computer paper, pens and pencils, and electronic needs.
If you have a student K-12 or in college in your house you can utilize a student discount for computer software for you and your child. If you send a copy of a valid school ID to sites like academicsuperstore.com or journeyed.com you can get software and computer products at up to 80 percent off.
Some U.S. states offer sales tax holidays during August for various things. This website shows which state offers these discounts and on what items the tax-free applies to.
