Tip #7
Buy Used

Not all school supplies, clothes or gear have to be new.

• Ask friends and families if they have left over supplies or clothes they’d like to sell/trade. 
• Try Craigslist. You’d be surprised what you’ll find. Especially on sports gear. 
• Shop Consignment Sales and Stores. There are great deals to be had. Check out ConsignmentMommies.com for a list of local sales. 
• You can also score great prices at Garage Sales. However, be aware of your time and gas money. 
• Selling your used or excess items can on Craigslist, at a Garage Sale or Consignment Sale can also be a great way to supplement your Back-to-School shopping.
