Here in Florida, summer break is half-way over! This means I have started to consider Eben’s back to school shopping. Luckily, Eben’s school takes care of all of the school supplies. Hooray!
I didn’t want to make any unnecessary purchases so Eben and I went through all of his clothes yesterday. We sorted all of his clothing into three bins, Keep, Sell and Donate. I was happy to find that most of his school uniforms are still in great condition and with a handful of new uniforms that a friend gave me, I won’t have to buy a single uniform this year! I washed his backpack (his is the Land’s End one) and lunchboxes (he has a PlanetBox and Laptop Lunchbox) – all came out of the wash looking brand new! And while shopping for a pair of sandals at the beginning of summer, I found a pair of KEEN Truckee sneakers for $5. So, the only things that I will need to pick up are socks and undergarments – I feel like I am ahead of the game!
This made me wonder, are you already starting your back to school shopping? What’s on your list? Are there items that you will be reusing?
