Back to School Deals: Best of July 22-28

07/23/2012 By Charlene 4 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

Here is a quick overview of the best Back to School deals for the week of July 22-28.

You might want to refer back to the Back to School Stock Up price list– I added a one page sheet you can just print out.

Also, note you don’t have to run all over town grabbing deals.  If you like to shop at Walmart you can price match most ads or Target does price matching too but only if you have ads on hand.

So just check your favorite deals and you can do one stop shopping at those stores.

    Angie,

    Was that all listed in your ad? I didn’t have any of that in mine. Maybe those are regional or just unadvertised prices?
