It’s time to go back to school ALREADY! I feel like summer didn’t really hit yet this summer with up and down weather. We’ve had short stints of heat, but lots of cooler, spring or fall type weather. Regardless, the calendar is changing and moving along and it’s the end of July! That means two things:
- It’s time for Hartland Kids Day (with it’s back to school supply drive for the Backpack Coalition)
- It’s time for back to school shopping for your family!
So, we scoured the internet and ad flyers and found the best back to school shopping for your family and ours! Have any tips to add? Tell us below or via Facebook!
