This post brought to you by Bealls. All opinions are 100% mine.
It’s back-to-school season. The number of days left spent poolside are numbered. The sun is slowly losing it’s heat, and the stores are stocking shelves full of pencils, colorful notebooks and folders and crayons as far as the eye can see. In addition to supplies, the kids have likely been growing over the summer. Pants that once fit well now look as though a flood is headed their way. Shoes that graced their feet just two short months ago have become tight and uncomfortable after a summer’s worth of sandals and sun.
Inevitably, a trip to the store is in order. As we head to the store to stock up for the kids we generally focus on essentials: t-shirts, socks, jeans and other items that can be layered once it gets colder. Start by for deals in the sale and clearance sections on summer items, searching for t-shirts and shorts that can be paired with long-sleeve undershirts and worn for the first two months of school. Once the weather truly starts to turn cold, the back-to-school items will all be on clearance to make room for holiday wear, and you can jump on those sales.
Back-2-School at Bealls has all you need for the back-to-school season, from uniforms to trendy styles for boys and girls. You’ll have all your back-to-school shopping done in no time.

Well a few school clothes for my step kids and new shoes for my 2 toddlers and maybe something nice for mommy and daddy!
Athena
I would buy new clothes, a backpack & shoes for my daughter. She is a senior this year! Hooray!!! I have ordered from Bealls before, they are great.
Stephanie B
I would use it for back to school clothes for my 2nd grader, preschooler, and toddler. We just moved to Texas and they will NEED more clothes for this climate change! And of course they are growing like weeds and need bigger clothes again!
Caroline
Both of my kids need new socks and underwear in addition to pants, tops and shoes. Jackets to keep them warm in our harsh Wisconsin winter are in order too. Ah, and graphing calculators are needed for the upcoming semesters.
Kelli
My daughter is very picky but LOVES the shirts from there!
Nicole
I would buy back to school clothes for myself. I’m starting a teaching internship and need more professional clothing for work.
chanayo
I just moved to Florida, but almost none of my clothes made the move with me. I’d spend the money on setting up a real wardrobe since we are uncertain when the rest of our belongings will make it south.
Janet
Shoes and clothes for my two girlies – 7th and 8th grade – my husband was out of work until late June – so we are still trying to catch up which means no new clothes for school.
Melissa Ray
I have 4 kids so this would go along way in helping make a dent in school supplies and clothes!
Juie
We have six children that are in need of shoes, pants, dress shirts, and a mama and daddy that need some under clothes.
We’ve never been able to do any sort of shopping spree so this would be a blessing.
Shelley P
I would buy jeans and t-shirts.
Jennifer Jones
I would use it to buy fall clothes for my three wonderful boys!
Christina
I would use it to buy shoes and clothes (shorts and shirts) for my little man. I live in FL and love Bealls!!
Karina House
I could outfit myself, my son and my daughter for our school year with $250 (plus sorting through the hand-me-downs our generous friends pass along!).
Rebecca
I have a 4 year old boy and a 2 year old girl, so we don’t have to do “back to school” shopping, but the 2 year old just went through a growth spurt and is now into 3T clothes, fortunately I had some in the closet (planned for next spring, closer to when she turns 3). Looks like I’ll be needing winter 3T clothes for her though. My 4 year old is okay on clothes for now, but it’s been a while since he hit a growth spurt, so I’m expecting it any day now. :)

Buying only from clearance and sale racks, $250 would allow us to purchase at least: 6 jeans/khakis $80, 2 pairs shoes $50, 10 socks $20, and 10 uniform shirts $100. I only have 1 kid (9yo) so we would keep half of these items and give the other half to a needy kid at my son’s school. Hopefully we could include 2 backpacks also.
Donna Sicilia
I would buy new clothes, shoes, backpacks for school, I have an 8 year old boy and a 10 year old girl and they just grow so fast I can’t keep up with their clothes!
Thanks! :)
Amanda T
My kindergartener needs socks and underwear and my preschooler needs jeans and other long pants!
Pamela Murphy
Back to school clothes for the grandkids.
Jennifer
I’d buy some new towels!
Debbye
Clothes for my new job!
Lisa
Buying school clothes for our young son who is growing so fast, and for our future daughter that we have been trying to adopt from another country.
Renee Evenson
Who couldn’t use a Beall’s $250 gift card. It costs so much to outfit kids for school these days that my kids really appreciate when Grandma helps out. That could buy a lot of school clothes!
Holly
I’d split it with my husband. And buy some baby things for my friend who is expecting!
deb
I love shopping at Bealls…get great deals. I would spend the mulah on all those great maek downs they have to stretch that gift card as far as it would go!
Kris
Definitely school shopping! Jeans, sweaters, boots & sneakers for my big girl. Maybe a couple of things for the baby, too!
robin
I have 2 teens and they would love this store. We’d stock up on school clothes for sure!
Sara
I would buy my son, who is growing like a weed, some school clothes and shoes. He’s starting kindergarten this year!
Sheila K.
I would buy school clothes, shoes, supplies, a new backpack, and maybe a little something for mommy!
Charity
School clothes for my kids.
