But analysts say their efforts will likely make little difference to consumers pressured school closeing by rising costs, who will likely stick to shopping at discounters — particularly as tax-rebate checks dry up and they aren't finding "must-have" fashion school folders items in the stores. "It will probably be one of the two or three most disappointing back-to-school seasons this decade," said retail consultant Burt Flickinger III, managing director of siu school of medicine Strategic Research Group, a New York retail consulting firm. "It will be very promotional. Consumers are more cash- and credit-constrained than any other time in U.S. history." Just how skittish shoppers are feeling will be seen Thursday nyssa school district when many retailers report their July sales for stores open at least a year. A weak back-to-school season might signal trouble for the all-important holiday season, which begins not long afterward. But though consumers might not see a new backpack or pair of jeans as essential this year, retailers are trying whatever they can — slashing prices of selected items, offering cash back or discounts on additional items, running some promotions at certain times of day. "We assume it's going to be a very difficult customer environment, so from a sales and promotions standpoint, we'll be extremely competitive," said Mike Boylson, chief marketing officer at J.C. Penney Co. Inc. The department store chain is also introducing six new lines aimed at teens and young adults during the season, compared with last year, when it introduced only one. Patricia Edwards, an investment manager at Wentworth, Hauser and Violich Inc. in Seattle, said the atmosphere was the most promotional she has seen in five or six years. "Frankly, it smacks a little bit of desperation to me," she said. In terms of department stores such as J.C. Penney or Kohl's Corp., "the problem right now is traffic," Edwards said. "Wal-Mart has a captive audience because of the food they sell. People are already there so it's a little easier for them." Another problem experts that cite is a lack of "must-have" fashion trends. Old favorites such as jeans and T-shirts are likely to be among the biggest sellers. "There's an absence of anything new in fashion," said Marshal Cohen, chief retail analyst at NPD Group. To get people past that thinking, retailers are going beyond any usual price cuts. The Gap Inc. is expanding its "friends and family" discount program. American Eagle Outfitters Inc. is offering a free T-shirt to anyone who even tries on a pair of their jeans. Despite the glut of promotions, analysts say shoppers are likely to flock to discounters known year-round for low prices such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Target Corp. and warehouse clubs such as Sam's Club and Costco Wholesale Corp. Those stores order larger quantities than department stores, said Flickinger. bristol city school system Bigger orders mean the stores can negotiate better prices from suppliers, and they would school clsures be allowed to "selectively" raise prices 3 percent to 7 percent in the next month, he said. Representatives for Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, and Target said they're working with suppliers to absorb costs rather than pass on increases. Target will be "price competitive" for back-to-school with Wal-Mart, spokeswoman Lena Michaud wrote in an e-mail. The stores also have benefited as consumers trade down amid rising living costs and consolidate shopping trips to save money on gas. Additional reporting from Bloomberg News. Vote for this story!

10 Tips: Back-to-school savings - 10 Tips - MSNBC.com updated 7:47 a.m. ET Aug. 6, 2008 10 Tips 10 Tips: Back-to-school savings Looks for bargains at garage sales, dollar stores and the Internet Paul Sakuma / AP Tip No. 2: When you find a good sale for school supplies, stock up for the entire year, not just the immediate future. By Laura T. Coffey Unless it’s already happened where you live, the new school year will descend upon you any minute now. Are you and your kids ready? With fuel and food costs rising and the economy slumping, it may be more crucial than ever for you to give considerable forethought to back-to-school purchases this year. The following tips can help you avoid spending too much on the clothes, shoes, backpacks, notebooks, paper, pencils, pens, protractors high school lesson plans and art supplies your children will need – not lrap program school to mention the high-tech gear you might get tapped to provide. 1. Begin by shopping at home. One way to get around spending hundreds of dollars per child is to avoid buying everything new. Take an inventory of what your family already owns. Have your kids really outgrown all of their shoes and clothing? Do you have an abundance of pens, pencils, folders and rulers? (Note: It’s not hard to hide company logos on folders and notebooks with stickers!) 2. Start sleuthing for bargains. Now is an excellent time to become highly attuned to clearance sales in your area and powell middle school coupons that can help you at this time of year. When you find a good sale for school supplies, stock up for the entire year, not just the immediate future. Be aware that some of sunday school lesson the best sales for backpacks, Thermoses and lunch boxes are likely to surface in September after school has already started. Can your kids make do until then? 3. Get thee to a dollar store. You might be surprised by the selection of paper products and other school supplies you’ll find there. Bring your child – a potential bargain-hound-in-training! – to the store with you to get his or her buy-in on any purchases you make. 4. Scour garage sales, thrift stores and consignment shops. These places typically require some legwork, but the bargains to be had are astonishing. On certain days of the week, some thrift stores allow edgewood high school you to fill an entire bag with clothing and buy it all for $3 or $4. Thrift stores and yard sales also can be godsends for young people for this reason: They often serve up designer name-brand finds for $1 to $5, as opposed to $50 to $100. Why not give it school integration a try? 5. Remember eBay and craigslist. If your child simply will die without a specific high-end designer brand, look for new or slightly used clothing online at sites like these. The savings could be substantial, and the process could be less time-consuming than the thrift-store-and-yard-sale route. 6. Set ground rules for clothes shopping. Choose clothes that will give your children room to grow. Pick up extra pairs of shoes in larger sizes when you find a good sale. Solid, neutral colors and classic styles – such as simple pullover shirts – are ideal because they’re easy to mix and match and less likely to look dated over time if you have younger kids. 7. Buy the right backpack. If you know your child is likely to overstuff his or her backpack, opt for a smaller one. Kids shouldn’t carry more than 20 percent of their own weight on their backs. Any pack you buy should have wide, padded shoulder straps. Rolling backpacks are available – if your child really will use the wheels and not just carry that extra weight around. 8. Don’t overspend on technology. Homework can be almost impossible to do these days without a computer and access to the Internet. If you’re thinking of investing in a personal computer exclusively for your child’s use, look newberry high school newberry mi for deals. There’s no need to pay top dollar for this purchase. Again, check out eBay and craigslist, and remember that refurbished computers are another option. As for other technology – such as firefighter school a cell phone, an mp3 player, grants for school a handheld video-game player and the like – only you can be the judge of what your child should get to have. If you view a cell phone as a necessity for safety reasons, be careful to sign up for a calling plan that will actually work well for your family, and teach your child not to subscribe to joke-of-the-day services, nudist school special ring-tone services and other kinds of “premium text messaging.” Otherwise it’s all too easy to get clobbered with astronomical

spotsylvania county school bus garage

cell-phone bills. 9. Track down the right calculator. If your child needs a fancy calculator for oconee county school system trigonometry class, bite the bullet and invest in a good one. It rancho del rey middle school will last for years – so many years, in fact, that one of your kids’ grandparents might already have one that you could borrow free of charge. 10. Teach important money lessons. Back-to-school season lends itself to having frank discussions with your children about money, budgeting and needs vs. wants. Depending on their ages and charm school maturity levels, you could negotiate back-to-school budgets with your kids and allow them to manage those budgets entirely. If they want anything above and beyond the dollar amount you’ve agreed to provide, let them use their allowance money or babysit, mow lawns or wash cars to pay for it themselves.
