The school allowance is paid this Thursday, August 18th! In other words, the start of the race is given to school supplies. But this annual chore also has a significant impact within a budget. On average, this supply costs 190.24 euros for a child entering sixth, according to the survey of the association Familles de France.
Among the products required for re-entry, paper mills supplies are the most expensive at 97.88 euros on average. Then comes the material non stationer, including all the elements of a package and the binder include, valued in total to 47, 82 euros. As for sportswear required for physical education classes, the association estimates the average price at 44, 54 euros.
To help you do not overspend, so here are some tips to follow.
1-Opt hypermarkets
Prefer very large areas (hypermarkets) to supermarkets or specialty stores. These small signs, namely stationery, show the highest prices in supplies of materials, according to the barometer of Families of France. The basket of necessary supplies for papermaking into 6th sold it for 54.61 euros on average, against only 43 euros in hypermarkets.
As for the sports business, hypermarkets are also best market (around 40 euros), front sports stores (43.82 euros) and supermarkets (about 50 euros).
2-Do not rush on lots
Beware of appearances, the lots (5 pens for example, 3 pots of glue, etc.) often offered by supermarkets, are not always economical! Patrick Christian, president of the association Familles de France and advises to always check the unit price is more advantageous in an offer of this type.
It also recommends opting for lots responsive. “A batch of 10 pots of glue, which will risk drying time, will have no use for a child,” he says.
3-Think refund offers but sulk the takeover bids
Supermarkets and hypermarkets offer for some years to resume old briefcases offers. It is offering a coupon to customers bringing a binder used (but not damaged!). In general, the amount offered is 10 euros provided to spend at least 50 euros. Not only “there is a relatively high purchasing minimum (…) that requires the consumer to perform all of these races in the sign in question,” explains Families of France. But in addition, it encourages to bring a satchel undamaged to the store and always usable!
As for repayment offerings, numerous this year, do not show yourself too radical. They can be useful provided you take some precautions! First point, you must need the products concerned.
Then you need to inquire about the exact details of the device. Is it a 100% money transfer as taught by Valley Office has already proposed? Or, as with Intermarché, a 50% refund immediately, and a credit on his loyalty card for the remaining half? Finally, remember to check the dates of the operation!
4-Let your children at home!
If this is your darlings who will use these supplies, it is not up to her so far ! To save you the stress and pressures, so avoid taking them with you to the store. Your wallet could say thank you.
In fact, those are licensing their favorite cartoons that children plébiscitent, said the Families of France survey, and therefore more expensive products! Expect to 32.95 euros for a roller backpack Monster High, 5.50 euros for a Minions PSG or workbooks, or 3.50 euros for Violetta kit.
