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.
One lucky Deal Seeking Mom winner will receive a $250 gift card to Bealls Florida (can be used online too)!

If I won $250 gift card to Beall’s, I would use it to buy backpacks and shoes for needy kids that I would donate to my church. My church is already collecting school supplies and I have been going store to store and shopping all the sales and buying school glue, pens, rulers, paper, crayons, etc., whatever I can get at the cheapest prices. We also have a Manna program – a grocery program to help provide groceries to community families. I buy BOGO items as often as I can to donate. Soooo, I would definitely use this to buy items that could be donated to my church and given to needy kids! I am very blessed to be able to give my daughter what she needs, so I like to be able to give back as much as possible! :-)

All in our family of 3 would benefit from the giftcard. The toddler would get some fall clothes. And the adults both wear uniforms for work and have let our wardrobes go from outdated to poorly fitting or just plain worn out.

I would stretch that $250 so far! I would get some of those awesome Floridian shirts (tourist-y shirts…think flowers & palm trees) for my hubby. We can’t find those styles here in KY! I would also get LOTS of clothes for the kids and shoes for me! I hope I win! Thanks DSM for the chance to enter! :)
