Back-to-school shopping season begins … now. If that stresses you out, know this: Starting early gives you more time to find deals. And, because those headed to college likely need some bigger-ticket items, we're kicking off college prep week in honor of all the students and parents with long shopping lists and short budgets. Plus, everyone can benefit from our official list of 5 things to buy in August.

The Best Early Back-to-School Sales, Period
Did you know that college students and their families are expected to spend more than $1,300 on average this school year? Let's try to bring that number down a bit.
Ideally, your student will have a couple sets of those twin XL sheets to switch in and out come laundry day (don't ask how often that will occur). Here's where to get them on sale.
Summer clothing is hitting the sales racks, so grab it while lots of sizes and colors are still available. The way this summer is going, you'll be wearing it until October.

Affordable Decor to Make Your Dorm Chic on a Dime
You don't have to spend a fortune emulating those TikToks that set the dorm decor standards WAY too high. These items will go a long way toward making any student's dorm attractive and functional.
College students need laptops that are light enough to lug across campus, have plenty of storage and pack a long battery life. But they don't need to have a high price tag. All these excellent options are under $1,000.
