Don't let the new school year stress your out. Zulily is here to help make you transition from summer to fall a little easier. Their kids fashion expert Shawn Anderson has compiled a list of tips and ticks
about how to save during Back to School Shopping and the Best Apps to use for Back to School Shopping.
How To Save During Back to School Shopping
o
To prepare your kids to head back into the classroom, zulily kids fashion expert Shawn Anderson recommends:
§
Plan in advance: Don’t wait until August 15
to start your back to school preparation. Avoid the stress of
last-minute shopping by getting started now and finish before all the
good deals are gone.
§
Get organized: Pull together a back to school checklist so you don’t forget any of the necessities.
§
Shop online: Sites like zulily.com offer parents a wide variety of back to school essentials
for kids, including clothes, shoes, accessories, supplies and toys, at
incredible prices. You can find everything your kid needs (and more!)
and save money at the same time.
§
Stockpile your favorite items at a discount:
When you find something your child loves and needs each year for school
at a great price, be sure to buy a few extra. Take advantage of these
deals for years to come!
§
Check in with the kids: It is never a good
feeling to buy your child new clothes and school supplies, only to find
out that their favorite color or cartoon character has changed. Involve
your kids in the shopping process
so you make sure you’re buying items they like and want to use.

I also got to experience shopping at Zulilly for myself. I can't believe I never checked them out before. They have a huge selection of clothing from top brands, all available for a fraction of retail prices. I had a $50 gift card to work with, and I was amazed at how much it got me.
The first item I picked out was the Black & Red Power Rangers Hooded Layered Tee. I snagged this shirt for only $8.99. My son loves it because it features characters from one of his favorite shows. Plus, the hood has an awesome built in mask.
For my daughter, the Aqua Frozen 'Elsa' Hoodie was the obvious choice. This sweatshirt was originally $40, but we picked it up for only $6.99.
Last but not least, my daughter is ready for even the harshest winter storm in her Pink Glo & Purple Leopard Puffer Coat. Not only does it keep her warm, it combines both her favorite colors. All this for only $19.99.
Wow, that is a lot of stuff for only $50. In most stores, I would have spent more than $50 for just one winter jacket. I am definitely happy with my purchases, and I'll be sure to visit Zulily first every time I need to go school shopping. These are only a few examples of the amazing products available from Zulily. To see all they have to offer, be sure to visit their website or follow them via their social media.
