Money Saving Sales on Back to School
Back to School sales 2022:
I know this is early (& some schools are not yet finished!!) but the demand on my instagram page for discount codes already, you are all organised this year!
📚 Most schools have received our School Book lists for Back to school in late August / early September, I thought it’s the perfect time to share the sales I spotted online to help you reduce your back to school costs.
There are two times of the year that is my most expensive & stressful times …. Christmas & Back to school!!
There is a Back-to-School Clothing and Footwear Allowance available, if you need help with your back to school costs. Click here to the mywelfare website getting kids ready to go back to school is challenging enough, but with the added implications of the ongoing pandemic, it is getting harder & harder to afford the back-to-school essentials. So hope this post helps in some little way to reduce those costs, and keep money in your pocket.
I also have a competition to help towards tour B2S costs… read below for more information.

Home Store & More:
I am waiting on the school bags & lunch boxes - bottles to go on offer in HomeStore & More. I predict it will start at beginning of August 2022. (MOAD)
Tesco Ireland:
I have found Tesco offers have been different this year than previous years, so predicting the sale for 2022 might be slightly off!
Previous years, Tesco had clearance sale in June on pens, markers, pencil cases etc. Later in June they had Sistema lunch boxes & bottles reduced to clear. End of July they had 25% off pack of twistables & in August, they had Back to school sale - 5 for €5 on copies, geometry sets, maths sets, pens, folders, print stick etc. End of August sale on school uniforms & shoes. It will be interesting to see what sales will be available this year!

Great place to pick up kids raincoats!! MidAugust on previous years Regatta had their Summer Sale with Up to 70% off, always good pick up school coats. Click here to keep an eye on the website
Smiggle:
‘Up to 70% off original prices’ sale is now online- But I always advise Irish customers to not buy on the website, as they charge customs coming into Ireland- Always buy in you local stores for best offers (& no extra charges)
Previous years: •20th June 2020 Smiggle 50% off top 100 picks online & 25% off full price
•23rd June 2020 Smiggle Summer savings online only 60% off & 25% off sale

Hope this post helps you save a few euro on the ever increasing costs this year

Happy Shopping,
