From notebooks to pencils to iPads, here is where you can snag the best back-to-school deals at stores in Florida.

FLORIDA — As inflation pushes prices higher at retailers nationwide, Florida families are more mindful than ever this year when it comes to how much money they're spending on supplies and other back-to-school items.
In fact, about one-third of back-to-school shoppers are cutting back on spending in other areas to cover the cost of items for the upcoming school year, according to a new trends survey released by the National Retail Federation.
Florida shoppers got some relief in the form of the state's sales tax holiday, which waived taxes on many back-to-school purchase from clothes to backpacks. It wrapped up Sunday.

"Families consider back-to-school and back-to-college items as an essential category, and they are taking whatever steps they can, including cutting back on discretionary spending, shopping sales, and buying store- or off-brand items in order to purchase what they need for the upcoming school year," Matthew Shay, National Retail Federation president and CEO, said in a news release.
Luckily, retailers in Florida and across the country are rolling out sales and promotions that just might fit a more conscientious budget.
