Your Fix: Back-to-School Checklist

Ready or not, here comes the new school year! You know what that means: back-to-school shopping, planning out your pickup schedule, and signing up for activities for the upcoming term.
You’re also going to want to get back in the school mindset. Whether you’re a parent, college student, or high schooler, it takes a lot of energy to get your mind away from summer vacation and get back into working gear. Start digging into those books now and get ready sooner rather than later.
Back-to-school shopping takes a decent amount of time and planning, as well. You’re going to want to create a budget, stack up on notebooks, and buy that new laptop before September hits.
