When is it best to go back to school shopping?

Is it too soon to go back to school shopping? Is it best to wait when it’s closer to school starting for deals or sales? I was given extra money and told to use it for my kids needs/wants.

Depends. How old are your kids? Will they still be the same size in the fall? I’d usually wait until after school started to see what the other kids were wearing and then shop the low prices after the “sales”. That’s when the stores wanted to get rid of inventory before the next season’s stuff came in.
