My kids just went back to school and I read this article on green school supplies, Green back-to-school: the write stuff — Plenty Magazine. My youngest has asthma so when I read about the volatile organic compounds it made me feel better that I could get things that didn't have an irritating odor.

There were other suggestions too such as asbestos free chalk and 100% recycled markers. Great for the environment and the classroom.

Times are difficult nowadays. It is just imperative to look for ways to cut costs. During the back-to-school season, what did you do to limit your spending?
