Cutting back on spending when you’re facing (or currently in) the bankruptcy process—even if you’re a parent—is a mandatory part of the whole debt dispensation ordeal. In short: if you are to be successful in (and out) of your bankruptcy, you must attempt to cut back, even if you have kids, if only to begin making better spending decisions for you and your family, just as you’re wiping away your burdensome debt through your bankruptcy.
Nevertheless, even if you’re currently considering bankruptcy or have already filed, you may also be feeling pressure to stock up on those necessary back-to-school items.
According to the folks at The Huffington Post, “With the new school year right around the corner, many families can expect to shell out hundreds of dollars on new school supplies, clothing and other gear. Back-to-school shopping will cost the average family with kids in kindergarten through 12th grade $688.62 this year. The largest chunk of that money will be spent on new clothing, according to a Parenting.com survey.”
Well, take a break from your bankruptcy for a few back-to-school deals from HuffPost sure to not break the bank, as a number of retailers are offering special sales, super deals and special giveaways that can help ease the burden of back-to-school shopping.
