Amazon on Michelle Obama: The Light Podcast

For the upcoming school year, what they wanted changed four times on the way to the store. They were so focused on which backpacks or lunchboxes they wanted, then they changed their minds minutes later. Do you remember what it was like to go school shopping with mom and dad? Oh, when we were kids? Yeah. Oh, for sure. I mean, that was like excitement, you know? It was like getting the new box of crayons, you know, whether you could get the 16 variety or the 64. There was nothing that spelled progress in learning than a new box of crayons. When you increased your number, I mean, it was like we are living large now. A fresh spiral notebook, I was ready to fill it up. I know exactly what you mean. We had what we needed, but there was always that one thing mom would let us pick out that just made the whole year feel right. And for me, it was always the three-ring binder. Just the empty three-ring binder? Yeah, because you could get the binder with the action figure on the front. You could get Spider-Man. I just never went for the action figure. Oh man, I like straight color. Batman, Spider-Man. What was the item for you? It was the spiral notebook with the paper already in it. And I like the colors because I like the color code for the subject. You know, you'd get reading, you'd get math. You know, I was highly organized, less into the characters, more into the focus on being organized. Yeah, I remember that. School shopping can be so fun though, the nostalgia of it all. We want the best for them, but we're also allowed to want back-to-school shopping to be a little bit easier and more affordable. It's good to save money so you know, you can spend it on your kids later. With Amazon, you don't have to worry about losing that shopping list anymore. They have so many options all in one place. No more driving to three different stores, giving your kids all the time in the world to rethink the erasers you just bought them. So remember, with Amazon's low back-to-school prices, just spend less on your kids because every dollar you don't spend on them is a dollar you haven't spent on them yet. They're going to get you some way.
