Overlooked school fees ‘pack a punch’ for back-to-school budgeting: Retail expert
Retail expert Carey Reilly analyzes the most effective back-to-school savings tips to combat soaring inflation rates on ‘Mornings with Maria.’
During an interview on "Mornings with Maria," Wednesday, retail expert Carey Reilly provided back-to-school savings advice as parents nationwide struggle to financially provide their children with the appropriate supplies amid escalating inflation.
CAREY REILLY: Take advantage of online shopping. First of all, warehouse shopping is great. You can save 30% if you go to one of your big box stores or whether it's Costco or whatever. Find a friend who also has a membership. You can split that among them. I also love shopping online. I use coupon sites. You can save a lot of money. The one I work with "Slickdeals.net." They have a wonderful community of 12 million shoppers that vote and vet the best deals.

Very useful tool. I also say buy second hand for clothing. "Poshmark" is a great site and the next generation coming up, these children, they love secondhand stores. They even think nineties fashion is vintage.
