BACK SACKS FILLED WITH GOODIES
WARREN, Mich., Aug. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Art Van Furniture and Meijer Supercenters are teaming up to help ease the cost of going back to school. Compliments of Michigan's number one furniture retailer and Michigan's mega retailer parents can pick up stringed back sacks filled with crayons, pens, pencils, pocket folders, etc.
The National Retail Foundation estimates the average family will spend $96 on school supplies, which is 10 percent more than last year. "For families on a budget, every little bit helps," says Kim Yost, Art Van CEO. "We thought this was a wonderful opportunity to help children get excited for school."
