Round-up of Back-to-School Deals

I was going to write up some of the best school supply deals - but so many bloggers have done such a great job - why recreate the wheel?

Check out this blogs for the best summary I've seen of some great Back-to-School deals!

Couponing 101


Remember, even if you don't have a little one who needs these supplies - there are lots of kids who could use your donation to give them a strong start to the school year. For only $1 or $2 you could really help a less-fortunate child with some great items! Almost every church, grocery store or foodbank has a supply-drive right now...

Kashi Clearance at Meijer

Whilst spending some quality time with my young son (shopping at Meijer) we (well, mainly me) were thrilled to find lots of fresh clearance items. I spoke with an employee and they are discontinuing lots of things to make room for new and/or better selling items.

Here are a few good ones to look for:

• Meijer Brand organic coffee, in a can. Both dark roast and medium are marked down, from $3.99 to $1.86. Had some this morning and it's really, really good! There were recently some catalina coupons for $1.50/2 Meijer brand organics, so this would make for some super cheap 'joe'!
• Kashi Go-Lean Strawberry (with flax seed) waffles - marked down to $1.67/box. If you have any remaining Kashi waffle coupons (I had several from a recent Vocalpoint mailer for $1.50/1 box), you get some super cheap waffles! I got 5 boxes for only .17 each!
• Several brands/flavors of frozen juice concentrate
• Much, much more throughout the store...Just look for the bright orange stickers on the self tag (my son and I made a game of looking for the stickers....Good times).
