Here are our five top back to school tips to help you get better value:
Discount codes
Promo codes are always a great way to get good savings, but make sure you’re using a website that allows you to use that promo code more than once on your back to school orders. Why only use a discount code once when you can use it multiple times?
Our discount code SAVE24 can be used as many times as you like on all your school essentials. **Please note that this promotion has now ended**
The classic ‘Discount on everything!’
We’ve noticed that starting school sales are cropping up everywhere, and whilst we love a sale for our customers, no matter who you buy from, just make sure that when you see a company promoting a discount on everything, it is on everything!
When you get on the company's website and look at the school supplies, they may only have a discount on a selected number of products in the back to school stationery, so make sure you don’t get caught out and build your basket to find the discounts only on a few items.
T&Cs
The new academic term is an exciting but manic time for you, so you may be asking, ‘Do I really have time to look at T&Cs?'. But to get the best value for your back to school shopping, it’s essential that you do! When you read those T&Cs, it comes to light that the value you thought you were going to get, isn’t really there. Wording such as ‘this offer excludes selected items’ or ‘applies to selected lines’ tells you that this offer isn’t for everything or everyone.
To get you stress-free and ready for school, you don’t need to worry about T&Cs with YPO. We pride ourselves on being completely transparent with you, so our back to school offering is on all our products, and we’ve worked hard with our suppliers to pass the savings on to you.
Cheap school supplies, too good to be true?
We’ve heard of companies knocking door to door at schools across the UK offering amazingly low prices on school stationery and teacher essentials, from pens and pencils to glue sticks, paper and more. These are sales tactics as old as time, and while you may get an incredible price at the start, the pricing will slowly creep up.
We recommend that when a company offers you too good to be true value, check their website, if their pricing isn’t available that’s a warning sign! Companies like this offer different pricing to different customers, so can you really be sure you’re getting the best value?
Items that make a difference to your children's learning
Our final tip is one that we get caught out with often in our personal lives too, and it’s the ‘sale junk’. A lot of the back to school sales items we’re seeing being marketed are clearance items such as excess stock or items that haven’t really sold for the year, so the product is being thrown in the back to school sales pot in the hope they shift. Make sure you’re buying the items you need – we’re all guilty of this!
For nearly 50 years, we’ve been helping schools by supplying schools resources across the UK, helping you buy better. Our back to school range has only the best products you need to help you shape our future generations.
Finally…
Going back to school in the 2024 new term can be stressful at best, so the last thing we want is for you to be worried about getting better value on your orders. That’s why we’ve helped our customers for 50 years and will continue to do so, helping you get the best value when buying your products.
