Las clases regresan muy pronto en nuestra ciudad tan rápido como este próximo jueves. Y con eso muchos padres están sintiendo el dolor en sus carteras con los altos precios de todos los útiles escolares. El costo para el regreso a clases ha alcanzado un máximo histórico.

Ahora yo me pongo a recordar porque todos fuimos estudiantes en algún entonces y recordamos el dulce olor de los lápices recién afilados y la vista de mochilas nuevas llenando los estantes en nuestras escuelas. A mí personalmente me encantaba ir de compras para el regreso a clases. Ahora, por supuesto, yo era un niño, así que los gastos no salían de mi bolsillo. Así que todo ahora se ve desde otro punto de vista

Pero sin dudas si es divertido ir de un lado a otro de los pasillos de las tiendas eligiendo las carpetas y los lápices perfectos. Es difícil creer que los niños aquí en Tampa regresarán a la escuela el jueves. Y Que los precios prácticamente de todo lo que exigen los maestros están exorbitada mente súper altos

Estoy seguro de que la mayoría de los padres están luchando esta semana para terminar de marcar esas listas de útiles escolares. Y con eso, no tengo dudas de que se están dando cuenta del costo de estos artículos. Si sientes que está pagando más este año que en años anteriores, tiene razón.

Un nuevo estudio realizado por la Federación Nacional de Minoristas muestra que se espera que el gasto de regreso a la escuela alcance los $ 41.5 mil millones, frente a los $ 36.9 mil millones del año pasado. Los precios más altos están haciendo que las familias gasten más que nunca, así como la mayor demanda de productos electrónicos como computadoras portátiles y tabletas.

From actors to pro wrestlers (although that could be considered one and the same), reporters to rappers, the list of celebrities who wore the cap and gown at their high school graduation here in Tampa Bay is pretty diverse.
