Back to School Shopping
Back to School shopping… Some people embrace it for different reasons. Other people dread running around to find all the different things needed to cover the supplies on the school list. Me? I LOVE back to school shopping. By the way, I think Walmart must have made all these backpacks that are already filled for those who don’t like back to school shopping. The backpacks looked like they had everything that might be on a school list.
I don’t usually need a lot of things, but I like going up and down the aisles with all the new products. I needed some highlighters, and I found several different types today. I had a hard time choosing, but I can’t wait to try them out. [Yes, I am a pen junkie…]
Marvel Boy found these Minion notepads and just had to have them. How cute are these?

And look at all of these crayons? There were more crayons and colored pencils on the other side of the aisle. While we didn’t really need new crayons or colored pencils to use right now, I did pick up some colored pencils for our upcoming road trip and crayons to use for our Fish Extender gifts for our cruise. Excuse me while I stock ahead for later…
Need a backpack or two? There was quite a variety. I’m sure that most kids would be able to find a good backpack in this aisle.
But, back to school shopping isn’t just about school supplies… Right now, Marvel Boy has a cold, and his nose is running. He can’t concentrate on his school work with his nose dripping, so part of our school shopping is making sure there is enough Kleenex on hand.
Does your school collect Box Tops? Box Tops are codes on certain products that are worth 10 cents a piece for your school. Do you see the Box Top on the Kleenex package above?
Right now, there are certain products at Walmart that have bonus Box Tops. Want to see which items have the bonus Box Tops?

Whether you are heading to Walmart for crayons and paper or Kleenex, underwear, or socks; it can definitely be a ONE STOP shopping trip for almost anything you might need for your new school year!

I always love back to school shopping.
Dana Matthews says
I have already started! I appreciate how Walmart makes it easier to shop for school supplies. With a Sr. a 3rd grader and a 2nd grader, the variety of items we need is so large, but Walmart always seems to come through!

I am looking forward to back to school shopping because for me that means reduced pricing on needed office supplies.
Linda White says
My kids have been out of school for several years now, but I still shop for supplies for my preschool Sunday school class at this time of year. Best time to stock up on glue, glue sticks, scissors, markers, etc.
Brooke Owens says
I can’t believe it’s time to go back to school shopping. It seems like this summer has just flown by.
Dorothy Teel says
What a neat idea that walmart put the stuff in the clear backpacks for school supplies, most schools now require clear back packs and the convenience of having everything you need in the back pack is great, and I love the little ‘eye- pads” quite a play on the I pad and the kids who think they need one of them.. at young ages, think I will look for them when I hit my Walmart this weekend. thank you for sharing this information and I have bought many of pens and if I did not like them gave them away, I am very particular, to the ones Ilike
Dorothy Teel says
whoops I forgot my neighborhood elementary school still uses box tops for kids and I save mine for them, my granddaughters don’t save them anymore, but the elementary school near me is delighted,
Leann Lindeman says
My daughter is 26 years old.. I don’t have to worry about back to school shopping anymore.
Sara Theissen says
I will be back to school shopping for myself, and I’m super excited lol
Linda Kish says
I don’t have to do back to school shopping anymore but I do like to pick up inexpensive desk items I may need. The prices don’t get any better than back to school prices.
laure damrose says
Oh!I love the products offered!
Tara L says
I am not looking forward to back to school shopping haha maybe clothes wise for my son, but that is about it. I hate looking at the list of things they need for school when I was younger I never needed to bring in stuff now this system is just different now which stinks. Schools should provide all that glue sticks, pencils, markers, etc. in my opinion anyways.
breanna pollard says
I am not!

My oldest child will be starting kindergarten this year so this is our first time back to school shopping. He is very excited.

Absolutely! It’s my favorite time of year. I love school supplies.
gretchen husband says
I don’t enjoy back to school shopping. We never get our list from the teachers until after school starts and all the good sales are over. I can try to buy things I think they will use but often end up over stocked or understocked

I don’t know, but I like having a list to work from!

I am looking forward to having it done! :)The kids love it so much and always have a great time which I like, but from my perspective I am ready to have it done
Tammy Woodall says
I will say its never boring, but no one can ever agree on what they can and can’t get. I’ve learned it helps to get the help of other family members to help, because the kids are less likely to act out when they are with us.
Mary Czerczyk says
I use to love back to school shopping. But my children are adults now.
Chrsty Caldwell says
Yes. I love to buy the new notebooks, backpacks, shoes, etc. However, finding the money for it all isn’t always so much fun.

I love back to school shopping. I love all the great deals and I can stock up for the year. I love to do crafts.
anne says
I quit doing any back to school shopping when 90% of the time the teachers provided what they wanted the children to use or didn’t allow the items purchased to be used. Now I wait until open house and only purchase what is needed.

Heather Garcia says
Not really. My girls start kindergarten and 3rd grade on Aug 3 but the school grade supply list is not given out until July 29. That doesn’t give me much time to take advantage of the BTS sales.
Casandra LaMonaca says
Yes, I like back to school shopping
Stephanie Phelps says
I do enjoy back to school shopping it is a chance to get the kids excited to go back!
Diana So says
My son isn’t old enough for school yet, so I usually wait for the markdowns of school supplies to grab extra folders, paper, pens (love pens!) and crayons (he loves to color). But I’m anticipating when I’ll be able to start school shopping for him. I love school/office supplies so I always get excited during this time of year because of the section, lol.
Ashley Morrow says
I love back to school shopping. I always buy a bunch of supplies, in hopes of becoming a more organized student. It’s the best part about preparing for school.
