Back-to-School shopping can add up fast, but a little planning goes a long way. Here are 5 simple ways to save while making the most of your MHV Debit Card:
Shop the Sales
Retailers rotate their deals weekly. Be sure to check digital sales flyers or browse store apps to stock up on the items you need when they’re on sale. Grab binders one week and crayons the next to maximize your savings.
Set a Budget You Can Stick To
Take a big picture look at what you can comfortably spend overall, and then break it into categories like supplies, clothing and extras. This helps you prioritize and avoid surprise totals at checkout. Your MHV Debit Card makes it easy to track spending as you go.
Use Store Apps for Extra Discounts
Many major retailers offer exclusive savings through their apps. Save your MHV Debit Card and check out faster while stacking deals.
Buy in Bulk for Shared Supplies
Bulk packs of school supplies are often cheaper per item, but storing all those extras can be a hassle. Team up with friends or neighbors to split the cost- and the quantity. You’ll save money without drowning in glue sticks.
Avoid Last-Minute Panic Buys
Start early and space out purchases. This helps you snag deals as they pop up; and reduces impulse spending during that final rush.
With tap-to-pay and mobile wallet access, your MHV Debit Card helps you shop smarter and breeze through checkout. And with 118,000+ fee-free ATMs, you’re covered wherever your school supply search takes you.
