Back To School Shopping Can Be Overwhelming!! #GREATLIST

Please Share!

*Thanks to Great Clips for sponsoring today’s discussion

Back to school shopping can be so overwhelming! Especially when you have more than one child to shop for! Each child has their own classroom school supply list and that can be difficult, especially if you wait until the last-minute to buy those items!

I am a last-minute, school supply shopper and I get very overwhelmed! So this year, I will shop alone, (no kids!!) and just get it done. My kids head back to school on September 3rd, so I still have time, right? Ugh.

Then, after school supply shopping I still have to arrange hair cuts for both kids! So much to do, thank God the clothes shopping is DONE! To help me with those hair cuts, I will be downloading the online Check-In App! By downloading this free app, Great Clips will make a donation to AdoptAClassroom.org! I thought that was pretty neat.

Plus, the Check-In App Is super easy to use! Just open the app and the salons nearest your current location will appear. Touch the salon location that fits you best, tell them your name, number and how many are in your group. Then, head right over to your Great Clips salon to receive the quality haircut or service you want! Hair cuts just became EASY!! Yay!

Sure you may not use the Great Clips “Check-In App” all the time, but for back to school haircuts and the fact that downloading it will garner a donation to AdoptAClassroom.org, that is enough reason right there for me to go ahead and try it out, it is FREE!

Many Great Clips salons are offering back-to-school pricing for haircuts! Please visit your local salon for pricing details.

After you download the free Check-In App, you can then head on over to the Great Clips site and upload your school supply list! Daily winners will get their back to school supply list, shipped right to their front door for FREE (up to $100!)! It is so easy to do and if you can’t upload your school supply list, no problem, you can just select the option to type it in!

You must hurry though, this giveaway started on July 15 and is ending on September 5th!!! You have mere days to enter! So GO! ALL contest entrants receive a $2-off Great Clips coupon with their confirmation email the first time they submit a school supply list! Seriously, nothing to lose, so go enter! 🙂

    Wow how nice that your kids didn’t start school until September. Where I live the kids go to school a week or so before Labor Day. I always thought it was silly to have a week of school then a holiday the next week – plus it’s so incredibly hot here. My kids are all grown, so I no longer have to do back to school shopping.

    It looks like a good improvement.

    Using the app for the school purpose is fine, otherwise I think it is annoying… I just see no purpose in being tied to my phone for even the most basic things.

    The Check-In App sounds great and convenient. We need all the help we can get with back to school! I do like that donations will be made also.

    Is it bad I didn’t take my kids with me? They are sooo super annoying to shop with, so I bought all the stuff, laid it out on the dinning room table and told them to stuff their bags with their supplies. It was really low key and they were super excited. 🙂

    My son just registered for his college classes yesterday. I have to pick up his supplies, other then that I’ve been done for a couple of weeks.

    We are all done shopping…finally! But I do need to get the kids haircuts again before school pictures happen. I love being able to cut out some of the wait using the app.

    I thought I was done – but my oldest told me he needs a new pencil box (I asked him 4 weeks ago if he needed one!).

    Great Clips is our go-to for hair cuts!

    Great clips sounds, well…great! I love helping teachers, definitely going to be checking it out.

    All my kids are adults now, so I don’t have to worry about back to school.

    I don’t have kids in school just yet, but I like going to Great Clips for my own cuts. I will download this app before I go just to help!

  25. Lisa @ Crazy Adventures in Parenting says

    Y’know, since we’ve moved, I haven’t checked to see if we have a Great Clips here! We had a few in San Antonio, but I haven’t even noticed and we need to get the kids’ hair done before school starts.

  26. Robin Gagnon says

    My daughter is young and in special ed, so we don’t actually have a lot to buy… just clothes and such.

    I love Great Clips. That’s where we get our hair cut. Love that they support schools and also support the hospital that I work at.
