I love to share savings with my readers and I’ve forgotten that. I’ve been so wrapped up in working with brands and hosting giveaways that I forgot why some of you started following me in the first place. Once upon a time I wrote about saving money, where to go to save and how to use coupons. So maybe, just maybe, I’ll make some time to write about that again!

Walmart sent me a list of some of their back to school savings and even though they are not paying me to post this, I thought it might help some of you who are already buying or thinking about buying back to school items.

From Crayola Washable markers to Texas Instruments calculators, parents can check off all the items on their school-bound children’s supply lists at Walmart. The retailer offers the brands, colors and styles kids want and need at unbeatable prices. Walmart also has some great back-to-college prices and sample shopping lists that can help your readers figure out all that they need at www.walmart.com/backtoschool.

Ready for some homework? Walmart stands firmly behind back-to-school savings and invites you to take the “Walmart Savings Challenge.” Put Walmart’s prices to the test by shopping for your whole list and comparing prices with other, local retailers. Get ready to add up the savings!
