Now that the
Republican National Convention and the
Democratic Convention are over, let's focus on how much money we can save. Truth be told, a lot of people were tuning into the convention hoping for answers about their financial future.
If there is one thing we can do for ourselves, it's to be financially conscious. And one way to go about it is to start changing our shopping habits. Whether it's cutting back, using coupons or only shopping the sale and clearance sections, we ultimately have the power and choice on how we are going to spend our hard earned money.
To make things easier for you, I've compiled a list of the 5 best deals on our site this week. We hope to make your shopping experience easier, save you time and ultimately empower you to take charge of your financial future.

Money Saving Tips
Getting ready to pack the kids off to school? Better make sure
they're packing the latest in student-friendly apps and tech
gear.
Below I've rounded up five items no student should be without.
They're good for everything from recording class lectures to
recovering lost laptops to saving money on textbooks.
It's one thing to take notes during a class. It's quite
another to record audio at the same time, adding bookmarks along
the way to easily revisit different topics and discussions.
That's the idea behind Audiolio ($2.99), a simple but
incredibly useful audio-recording app for iPad.
You can record anything with Audiolio, but it's best suited
for things like presentations, interviews, and lectures.

Money Saving Tips
This summer has gone by so fast. I seem to say that every year now as our three boys grow up. With the hustle and bustle of summer also comes along the realization that school is going to be back in session very soon.
Have you started back to school shopping yet?
I have nearly all of our shopping done. This year I started earlier to make sure I wasn't frantically running from store to store to get the list of supplies and paying a pretty penny. Here are 3 things you can to do spend less on school supplies and find great
back to school deals.

Do the kids really need half of this junk?
New sneakers, new pens, pencil sharpeners, and more,
Got it all but the sharpener, though I've been to every store.

Loose Change
I'm sure by now, you've been bombarded with
Back to School sales ads and have either bought all the essentials needed for the first day of school or you're still in the process.
Although I haven't received the supply list for my soon-to-be kindergartener, it doesn't take a genius to know that a backpack is one of those essentials needed by a student.
Like clothing, shoes, hairstyle and accessories, a backpack is an extension of your child's identity. Your child may be in love with a Toy Story 3 backpack with all sorts of tacky colors and you may be happy to call it a day with a simple red backpack from Jansport.
You may wonder if it's possible to score a decent pack for a price that won't put a strain on your budget. Surprisingly, they exist and I've compiled a list of 5 backpacks for
under $10. They range from distinct girls and boys bags to a
functional unisex bag.
