Back-to-school shopping is getting pricier, but parents are still planning to spend more this year—an average of $378 per kid, up from $311 last year! Tech gadgets, clothes, and supplies are all seeing a bump, but everyone’s feeling the pinch from inflation and possible tariffs. Most shoppers are starting earlier, hunting for deals, and even checking out secondhand options. Retailers like Target, Walmart, and Amazon are expected to come out on top. Are you shopping early this year? #Education #BackToSchool #RetailTrends
