6 School Supplies at Walmart for Under $10 That Parents Love

It may seem strange to think of back-to-school stuff when the academic year is already in full swing but, but savvy parents can get ahead of price hikes now or before the next half of the school year.

By shopping at Walmart, you can get ahead on grabbing a variety of back-to-school essentials, from notebooks and clothes to electronic needs.

Get Ahead: The Best Walmart Deals To Grab Now For Fall

  • Price: $5.82 per six-pack

What’s better than one sturdy Pen + Gear composition notebook? A six pack. These notebooks are 7.5 inch by 9.75 inch, wide ruled and 80 sheets per book. The perfect place to pen (or pencil) the facts, stories and dreams of a young learner.

  • Price: $2.62

Almost every back-to-school list for elementary, middle and sometimes high school includes markers, for creative projects and poster making, to name a few. You’d be hard pressed to find a 10-count box of colorful Crayola markers for less anywhere else.

  • Price: $9.96

Kids may be cute, but they’re also messy, and lucky is the family that makes it through a school year with a lunch box intact that isn’t just a little bit disgusting. This Arctic Zone lunch box combo includes a lunch box, ice pack, water bottle, and sandwich container for a ridiculously low price.

  • Price: $10.70 per three pack

If your kids are old enough for smart devices, they’re probably old enough to constantly lose their charging cords, too. Rather than buying expensive name brand cords that will probably end up wherever missing socks and Tupperware lids go, get this three pack of 10-foot XUDUO iPhone chargers. They’re braided nylon, so tough enough to withstand children’s attention.

  • Price: $4.48

If there’s any more essential clothing item for kids than T-shirts, it’s hard to imagine, and sometimes they go through them as quickly as if they were disposable. Not to worry, these Wonder Nation boys kid tough tees (which any gender can wear) come in multiple colors, for sizes 4 through 18 and husky and are so affordable, you won’t blink if one comes home stained.

  • Price: $1.68

Another essential off the back-to-school lists is often some form of washable glue sticks, for all the creative collaging a young mind can do. This two-pack of the purple Elmer’s disappearing glue is perfect for helping younger children center projects.
