Remember when going back to school meant buying a few notebooks, a brand new box of crayons, and new shoes? Should you wore a uniform university, you probably got one of those too; or else, you have 1 or 2 new outfits. That’s it.

Well, times have changed. The availability list now contains things that was previously provided by the schools – like scissors, glue and tissues. Every child wants a new backpack, notebooks, paper, pens (red, blue and black), glue sticks, ruler, tape, scissors, markers, folders and a calculator. In case you have two children and you also shop the sales, you may still find yourself spending over $100.00 in supplies alone. Knowning that doesn’t even count the modern clothes your son or daughter “has to have” or even the fees which are necessary for art projects, lab costs, etc.

Don’t even get me moving on the supplies, including furniture and appliances, your child needs for school. Will it ever end?

Follow this advice to save money on paint canvas this year.

1) Recycle – Confirm what you curently have in the home. You probably have assorted crayons, markers, colored pencils, etc. lying around your home. Put these together inside a pencil box and will save you a few bucks.

2) Re-use – Kids think that last year’s backpack has to go, but a quick trip from the automatic washer may provide it new life.

3) Reduce – Does your son or daughter have a very notebook from last year containing three pages of written material inside it and 77 blank pages left? Would you find this notebook within the trash can – or worse – the trash? Might be a good time to discuss waste and keeping it to a minimum by getting the most use possible out of every item.
