I am know US people are especially in trouble with the cost of their books but haven’t you never financially suffer from buying copybooks, pens, binders, highlighters, white-outs, pencilcase, pencil, rubber, running shoes, backpack, organisers, coloring pens, ruler (30cm not 20), compass, square and protractor, sharper, scissors, gouache, feuilles simples A4 à grands carreaux, feuilles simple A5 à petits carreaux, agenda, feuilles doubles A4 à grand carreaux feuille Canson blanche A4 180g, trois cahiers à spirales 24-32 avec intercalaires de la marque Claire Fontaine et une calculatrice TI-83 Premium CE ?
I mean if not your parents did, and you will soon. As soon I you leave high school if you continue to study or a soon as you kids reach 3 years old.
Have I mention back-to-school clothes and hair cup that might need to be freshen up if the school picture is taken too far from the beginning of the year ?
In the US, in the weeks leading up to the new school year starting late August/early September, many retailers will offer discounts on school supplies - paper, pencils and pens, backpacks, etc - to attract customers. Many clothing retailers market it to students as a great time for a wardrobe refresh or to reinvent your look entirely and offer discounts. Same deal with electronics, especially since higher math courses tend to have required calculators. Some states - including Ohio, where I live - offer a sales tax holiday on a weekend during this season to help with the expense involved.
It’s wicked expensive with just one kid, I can’t imagine having several.
more of a “back to putting off work from school” sale
I used to rush to do my homework in between classes and on the bus, to make more time for short SNES games. I can’t imagine what it’s like for kids, now that they have enormous open-world games to distract them.
What’s “school shopping season”?

It’s the time in America at the end of summer when the “back to school” list’s come out for each grade of each school.
