Back to School with Carolina Pad

Its hard to believe, but in only a few more weeks, the kids will be back in school.  It seems like they just got out for summer break, and its over already. I won't miss my two older children fighting with each other all day, but I will miss having them around to help entertain their little sister. Especially since any day now, there will be a new addition to our household.  But there is no denying that the first day of school is coming, and its time to start getting things together. From clothes to school supplies, there are tons of things we need before the big day arrives.

When I am getting ready for school shopping, the first thing I always do is make a list of everything I need. This helps to to keep me organized and ensures I don't forget anything. For the larger items like school bags and clothes, I tend to go to Wal-mart and Target because you can find everything you need under one roof. They even have some of my favorite school supplies from Carolina Pad, all available at affordable prices. The older my kids get, the more particular they are about the things they want to bring to school. They don't want cartoon characters any more, but the plain folders and note books are boring. Carolina Pad has lots of fun styles that make it easy to get back to school in style, especially in their new Studio C collection.

Bargain hunting is also a big part of my plan when I am shopping for back to school supplies. I check all the circulars for my local stores. But its also a good idea to look around online because there are always great deals to find. Here's a great deal for you from Carolina Pad.
