August has arrived, and with it, back to school prep. Don't worry! There are plenty of online deals on kids clothes which I'll cover here from brands such as The Children's Place, Carter's, OshKosh B'gosh, Old Navy, and more - at similar or cheaper than discount store pricing.
If on the other hand you're more interested in school supplies, I have a separate article on where to get all the brand name school supplies cheaply.
For now, let's move on with kids clothing and deals for early August on these. Kids clothes is an area where I haven't seen an increase in prices with inflation, unlike the grocery store. So the good news is that you can still get your kids outfitted nicely for school without breaking the bank.
The Children's Place
The popular store The Children's Place looks boutique-y but they're very affordable! Especially when they have deals running. I buy most of my kids clothes from there because of the high quality, cute designs and surprisingly low price point.
Also, it's a bit of a "hidden gem" when it comes to backpacks, so if your child needs one, you should take a look at The Children's Place backpacks. They are very affordably priced compared to discount store backpacks; they have awesome designs and your child won't have the same backpack as everyone else since most people don't think to get backpacks from there. Most of the designs come with 2 mesh side pockets for water bottles - a must-have if your child has a chromebook or other items in their backpack they don't want to get wet in case of a water bottle leak. I can attest that these backpacks are very long-lasting too - my oldest child had his from preschool all the way through 6th grade. That's 9 years of heavy use! It eventually broke in 7th grade, but after a very long lifespan. His friend had a better-known sports brand from elsewhere and it broke much earlier. So if your child needs a backpack, I'd recommend getting it from The Children's Place.

- 40% Off Backpacks - valid through August 12
- $6 & Up All Activewear- valid through August 12
