If this school season isn't your first, then you know the smartest thing you can do as a parent is plan ahead for the academic year. Waiting until the end of August to head to the supply store means you're going to be faced with empty shelves, and likely, a disappointed young one at your side who wants to know why the only things left to buy are packs of green pens. Not only can you avoid this entirely, but shopping back to school now means you get access to the best deals. We found 34 things that are either priced very well, or on sale. Jump on these deals while you can.
