BBB Says It’s Important to Set and Stick To a Back to School Budget

(Undated) – It’s back to school time and the Better Business Bureau wants to make sure you are using all of the tools at your disposal to save as much as you can. BBB Investigator, Don O’Brien, says you would be wise to set a back-to-school budget and stick to it. O’Brien says one tip is to look in your child’s backpack to see what kind of supplies remain, and then cross those off of your shopping list. Another trick that can save you money is buying in bulk if possible. He also says many stores and software companies offer discounts and it never hurts to ask.
