This month, parents launch kids off to school, college students head off to dorms, and the rest of us prepare for autumn’s sprint toward Christmas. Whatever compels us to shop this season, most of us could do with a few bargains to get us through the last half of 2017. Today’s video shares my favorite shopping tips to help consumers get the most from their budgets year-round.
