The cost of school supplies has also been subject to inflation but with August comes special back-to-school sales.
We’ve done comparison shopping below on brands, models and retailers for computers and calculators. Many times schools specify a model, for example the TI-84 Graphing Calculator for high school math and science students.
Sometimes you’re left to make your own decisions. We’ve tried to simplify the process with some comparison shopping and a list of online retailers.
Computers
We chose the Lenovo brand because several retailers carry similar machines by this brand. Note that computers cited below aren’t identical, but you can still draw some broad comparisons.
