Get ready for this year’s back to school sales as the summer is cooling down and classes are almost back in session. While school supplies are the best things for the new school year, students can also get excited for the latest back to school outfits and popular back to school hairstyles.

Back to School Sales

School Supplies

Staples has so many back to school sales for its school supplies this year. The office retail store usually puts out big deals toward the end of summer, as students gear up to start classes up again in the fall.

Shoppers can get Expo Dry-Erase markers for 35 percent off (because who doesn’t love dry-erase boards?) as well as four-packs of Expo Original Chisel-Tip Carded Dry Erase Markers in Assorted Colors for just $4.00 (regular retail price: $5.99).

For the students who are using notebooks and paper like the good old days, there are Bic Ballpoint pens on sale for 33 percent off. Wescott scissors are on sale for 58 percent off and Post-it Sticky Notes are on sale for 50 percent off.

Staples 1 Subject Notebooks are now selling at $0.75 each, and Composition Notebooks are $0.50 each. Their two-pocket plastic folders are going for just $0.50 and additional Staples "staples" like Westcott 12" wooden rulers cost just $0.25.

Staples is also hosting an awesome sweepstakes event to win a $50,000 scholarship and trip to meet superstar Katy Perry. All shoppers who spend $25 or more, in-store will receive an entry code for this contest on their receipt.

Macy’s Sales on Clothes

As the summer ends, some students are looking to make a fashion statement when they go back to school. Be in style, and save money with the latest back to school sales at Macy’s. Shop online and get free shipping with a purchase of $50 or more.

Macy’s flare dress is now selling for $36.99, down from its original price of $79.50. For non-dress wearing people, get a pair of Celebrity Pink skinny jeans, on sale for $26.99.

Back to school Tops

Macy’s also has Material Girl bandeau tops on sale for $12.99, and V-Neck T-shirts on sale for $21.99. For $12.99 you can also get an American Rag tank top. The American Rag tank top can be paired up with a pin skirt or jeans.

Back to School Outfits

Shoppers can match different outfits together after buying all essential items. Match a black Bandeau top with high wasted super skinny jeans. Or come to school on the first day with a pretty flare dress, showing your classmates that you are not ready for summer to end just yet.

And for the bold ones, come back to school with a new hair dye. Walking though those doors with bright pink hair will definitely make a much needed fashion statement.
