The time has come to stock up on school supplies, but who knew dumping out the piggy bank could actually cover your basics?
The penny is making a comeback, as cash-strapped shoppers scour stores for the best deals. OfficeMax and Staples have led the way with penny promotions changing weekly, and both CVS and Wal-Mart are running special deals in hopes of gaining back-to-school shoppers’ attention.
So before you hit the road to buy your pencils, notebooks, batteries, and highlighters this weekend, don’t forget your pennies.
