Time to make a list of things to get before school starts. I leave the school supplies for last because I don't want to get the wrong things and then I'm stuck with it. For now we'll get the clothes, shoes etc. I already know what type of shoes my son wants. He wants something comfortable and sturdy that he can use for gym and not have to carry an extra pair of shoes. My daughter wants a pair of black boots. She's been bugging me about it for months! Up until now we couldn't find one she liked that weren't really expensive!
Of course she also wants a nice big bag to go with the boots so she can carry all her books and don't have to worry that it's going to break like it happened to her last one. My son needs a backpack and he already told me which one he wants so all I have to do it order it and voila. One more thing of the list. Are you done with your list? Pin It Now!
Thankfully I'm almost done with my 8 yr old but my teens another story! I try to get him basics and keep on hand what I think he may need but I always get surprised! Last year at the last minute the teacher told me he needed a $100 calculator. The darn thing was on sale for about $75 before school started but I didn't know he needed it! Def. a budget buster!
ReplyDeleteMs. Latina, I have been buying things here and there. Next week hopefully I will get most of it. Wow, $100 for a calculator! How times have changed!
