Back to School is in full force across the country right now! It seems as though my Facebook feed has been full of adorable first day of school photos for a couple of weeks and I know there will be more this week and next.
There are many things that I love about the Back to School season. I love that fall is just around the corner. I love getting back into a normal routine after a usually routine-less summer. And as a huge fan of school and office supplies, I love that this is the time of year to stock up on those items.
I find that it makes our school days go so much more smoothly when we are able to get into a solid routine – especially a morning routine. From elementary school age to high school, a routine is so helpful for school children. And if you focus on getting your AM and PM routine down pat, you’ll notice that most of the time between is more productive and runs more smoothly.

There are so many great sales going on at this time of year to stock up on school and office supplies. I recently learned of Jet.com which is a great website to save on lots of stuff, especially school essentials! Here is a bit of how they work:
“Jet’s proprietary, dynamic pricing algorithm finds savings in real time and shows you the items that bring down costs when bought together. Members can also save by making choices that avoid costs normally baked into online retail prices, such as waiving free returns or choosing lower cost payment methods.”
Many of the prices on Jet.com are lower than major competitors, including Amazon. And I love that as you bundle different items, your savings increase. It’s a unique shopping experience and you can try it for free for 3 months! Also, I love that shipping is free on orders of $35 or more. You can stock up on school essentials and not even have to get out of your pajamas!
Jet is an online shopping club with great savings and very low membership fees! They have a great video here to learn more about how they work and you can head over here to sign up to try it for free!

A daily routine printable is a MUST for us. I forget everything so I have to write it down.

I still haven’t shopped on Jet, although I keep hearing so many wonderful things about it. One of these days I really need to check it out.
Christie says
This is a perfect way to stay organized through the school year! I’d love a printable sticker sheet for my son’s daily school reminders
Rosey says
I like that you can bundle to save too. I also like that they’re real Amazon competitors, you don’t find that often.
Penelope says
It sounds like a great site. Now that the kids are back in school I feel like I have a little bit of time to get my shopping done.
Crystal says
Shopping from the comfort of home is my favorite. I’ll have to check out the deals on Jet!

Keeping kids on a routine is so important! They need to learn the importance of scheduling early on so they incorporate it into their lives as adults!
