Back-to-school shopping has evolved with big retail chains offering online supply lists tailored to schools and grade levels. Families often start shopping months in advance to find deals and mitigate costs due to anticipated price increases from new U.S. tariffs on imports. Coresight Research estimates back-to-school spending in the U.S. will reach $33.3 billion, reflecting a rise in consumer spending compared to previous years. Early shoppers aim to complete around 60% of their purchases before August to avoid higher prices.
Retail and technology consulting company Coresight Research estimates that back-to-school spending from June through August will reach $33.3 billion in the U.S., a 3.3% increase from the same three-month period a year ago.
Consumers are of the mindset where they're being very strategic and conscientious around price fluctuations, so for back to school, it prompts them to shop even earlier.
Many families begin their back-to-school shopping months before Labor Day, searching for the best deals and making purchases tied to summer sales.
Big retail chains generate online lists of school supplies for customers who type in their zip codes, then choose a school and a grade level.
