Back-to-School Sales (WFMW)

Even if you don’t have children in school, or you don’t need much by way of school supplies, consider shopping these back-to-school sales.  The drugstores and office supply stores run some really great deals.  Mass merchandisers have pretty good deals, as well (‘though usually not quite as good as what you can find at the other stores).  It’s quite possible to pick up lots of supplies for pennies, and these are great for donating to abused women’s shelters (many of the women have their children with them), homeless shelters, etc.  (Many  items make good gift components, too, for the holidays.)  If you want to donate the easy way, I found that, in our area, both Staples and Dollar Tree had donation boxes available.

For those of us on tight budgets, this is one way we can bless those around us, even with our limited resources.  This works for me.
