Josh Elledge - Chief Executive Angel
Each week throughout the back-to-school “shopping season” – SavingsAngel will bring some of the best deals and steals to your attention. We believe in “shop early, shop often” to snag the lowest prices and take the pinch out of back-to-school spending.
When stores have the same items on sale, we’ll mark some of them with asterisks (***) to help you know who has the lowest price that week.
It’s by no means an exhaustive list, so please add to the savings and discussion by commenting with other sales and deals!
