Summer is Almost Over, School year getting ready to begin

Can you believe that the summer is almost over?  By summer, I mean summer vacation.  Hillsborough county schools start on August 3, 2006.    That is just three weeks away from today.

Well, the tax free holiday starts next weekend.  What most other parents have told me is that they have noticed that some store actually mark-up their prices during that week because they know shoppers are eager to take advantage of the tax break.  I have not noticed the hike in prices, but I will be more observant this year.

What I have seen is that some stores have already begun to advertise sales on a lot of back to school items.   This is great time for homeschoolers to purchase their back to school supplies and just stock-up for the rest of the year.

Summer is almost over and time to prepare for the upcoming school year has begun.
