Back-To-School Money Saving Tips

TWINSBURG, OH - From Seth & Sasha: Summer may be in full swing, but smart shoppers are planning ways to save money on back-to-school shopping. Back-to-school and back-to-college shoppers are expected to spend $75 billion this year.

With 93% of a family’s back-to-school budget going to clothing, shopping resale is an easy, smart way to save money. Upscale children’s resale boutique Seth + Sasha Kids is a

one-stop shop for finding on-trend new and like-new clothing and designer labels at affordable prices.

“Why pay full price for clothing your children will quickly outgrow?” said Felicia Hameed, owner and manager, Seth + Sasha Kids. “We handpick our inventory to provide families with excellent quality and affordable clothing. You can find all your favorite retail brands at a fraction of the full retail price.”

Seth + Sasha Kids owners Felicia and Akil Hameed offer three more tips for saving money on back-to-school shopping:

• Set a Budget: Before you shop, decide how much you can afford to spend on all your back-to-school needs before you shop. This will ensure you have money for supplies, electronics and clothing.
• Shop Your Kid's Closet First: A new season does not mean a new wardrobe. Before hitting the mall, look at what your kids already have and build around the items they already have. Taking inventory beforehand will prevent buying similar or duplicate items.
• Take Advantage of Ohio’s Tax Holiday*: Ohio’s third annual sales tax holiday is Aug. 4-6. Clothing and shoes priced at $75 or less will be exempt from state and local sales tax on those days.

Seth + Sasha Kids offers a mix of new and like new children’s clothes and shoes in sizes newborn through 16 Y. They are also a licensed distributor of many children’s clothes, accessories and toys such as Isobella + Chloe, Kapital K, Melissa & Doug and American Jewel among others. Their recently launched online store carries merchandise found in the store.

Since inception three years ago, Seth + Sasha has been passionate about its community giveback working with organizations like Alive on Purpose, Kids in Need Foundation and more. Additionally, the retailer works with nonprofit organizations to host fundraiser events where shoppers receive 15% off purchases and the organization receives 15% of that event’s sales. This fundraising program has been able to help raise more than $2,500 in the last three years.

Seth + Sasha Kids is open Monday through Thursday 10 am – 7pm, Friday 10 am – 5pm, Saturday 10 am – 7 pm. Closed Sundays until the Christmas holiday season. Visit online at www.seth-sasha.com or in store at 8922 Darrow Road, Suite 103, Twinsburg.
