Somehow, back-to-school season is upon us, and you know what that means: shopping and shopping some more. Between school supplies, dorm must-haves, and fresh outfits, getting your kids back in the classroom can put serious pressure on your budget. That’s why we turned to Dina Sweeney, director of merchandising for Kidpik, who knows everything about school shopping season and how to save. Luckily for us, Sweeney has been around the back-to-school block many times with her two college-age kids and is full of wallet-friendly advice. Read on for Sweeney’s top five tips for sticking to a back-to-school budget without sacrificing style.

Before you go shopping, take inventory of what your child already owes. Extend this exercise in organization to your kids’ clothing, shoes, and school supplies, and make purchases based on what they truly need. By taking inventory, you’ll identify gaps and avoid making duplicate purchases. Do they have a barely used backpack that could hold up for another year? How about an unopened set of markers Grandma gave them for Christmas? It’s not always necessary to buy all new supplies each back-to-school season, says Sweeney. Items like backpacks, pencil cases, scissors, and rulers can often be used year after year. As for clothes, consider setting aside a day for a closet cleanout. “Go through their closets, dresser drawers, and even the laundry to ensure you're considering all wearable items,” Sweeney says. “Take note of what fits, what's worn out, and what's no longer in line with their style or comfort.” Sweeney
