My Back to School Shopping Secret to SAVE MONEY!

We are just days away from back to school, but can I tell you my back to school shopping secret?

I DON’T DO IT UNTIL THE KIDS ARE BACK IN SCHOOL!

Here’s my reasons:

• September is waaaay too hot for hoodies and snugly clothes.
• You don’t want to be wearing what everyone else is wearing, so you need to see what everyone is wearing before you go shopping.
• The deals are way better after school starts.

SOOOO Behind Closed Doors is a perfect opportunity to solve all those issues, plus it is my tween daughter’s yearly shopping highlight, so it’s a great opportunity to bond before she completely transforms into someone I don’t know aka a teenager.

For those that don’t know, Behind Closed Doors is Peterborough’s Shopping Event of the Year at Lansdowne Place.  This year, it’s happening on Saturday September 10th 7:30-10:30m.  You pay $5 for a ticket (ALL PROCEEDS FROM TICKET SALES GO TO 10 LOCAL CHARITIES), that $5 ticket gets you through “Behind Closed Doors” where retailers offer major discounts and shopping deals! It’s a total blast and a super fun community event.  Think Black Friday shopping excitement but with the undercurrent and energy of helping charities and people who truly deserve it.

Watch this VLOG (watch time 3:17) and get your ticket!  They’re available at Lansdowne Place Customer Service and at all of the participating charities.
