The importance of a printer at home for students
A home printer is an essential tool for students at every stage of their education. From printing homework assignments and revision notes to creating project materials and last-minute study aids, having a printer at home adds convenience and reduces stress.
Whether it’s a quick worksheet for a primary schooler or a detailed report for a university student, a reliable printer helps students stay organised, independent, and prepared throughout the school year.
If you need any assistance with choosing a new home printer for the new school year, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Tips for saving money when buying school supplies
A little planning now can lead to big savings later. Here are some quick and easy tips to help you save money on school supplies.
Make a list and stick to it: Have a good look at each school stationery list and check off what you actually need to pick up. Avoid impulse purchases by planning ahead and checking what you already have at home.
Explore own-brand stationery items: Smart choice, same quality: why pay more for stationery? Own-brand school supplies give you reliable quality, stylish designs, and unbeatable value for every classroom or home study space.
Shop value packs: Buying multi-packs of stationery items like pencils, notepads, and pens, are often cheaper when bought in multi-packs. It also means you’ll have spares if any items go missing or for when you run out down the line!
Take advantage of sales and promotions: Starting the back to school shopping early can help you avoid last-minute price hikes. Be sure to sign up to our weekly newsletter for exclusive offers, freebies and discounts that you won’t want to miss.
