IF you have children who are going back to school or starting in September, you might want to head to Tesco.
The supermarket chain’s 25% off school uniforms promotion is back and shoppers are rushing to Photograph even reduced-price pants, tops, and sweaters.
The discounts began today (July 23), and a shopper confirmed that they had landed at her local store.
Taking to the Facebook group Extreme Coupons and Bargains in the UKshe wrote: “25% off all school uniforms released in Tesco today.”

You need to ensure you have your Tesco Clubcard or app when you get to the checkout for the discount to be applied.
Many buyers seemed interested in taking advantage of the savings, and one of them said: I’m going to start shopping.”
TESCO’s F&F line has a great value for money, with high quality products characteristics.
These include adjustable waists, stain-repellent fabrics, and long-lasting colors.
But it also has a one-year guarantee, so if one of your uniforms doesn’t last, the store will replace it for you.

Emanoel says: “It’s a very good sweater, it’s soft and warm.”
Her mother, Raquel, says: “That sweater is beautiful. With a fleece lining, it will see you through the winter. These pants are very good. they are thick with an adjustable waist so they will last as he grows.
Anaya says, “This cardigan isn’t as soft as some of the others, but that’s okay. The polo blouse is cool too.”
Dad Nas says, “Pretty and simple, not too much frills. The skirt is also adjustable, which is great.”
Large supermarkets tend to do this type of deal every year at the beginning of summer.

How can I save money on school uniforms?
IF you’re struggling to pay the cost of your school uniform or PE kit, you can apply for a grant from your local council – but criteria vary from council to council.
This is usually in the form of a one-off payment paid directly into your bank account. Some councils will refund payments made to approved retailers.
You can ask your local council what help is available and when you need to apply.
If you can’t get targeted help from your council, there are other options for getting a cheap uniform.
Talk to your school to see if they can offer you some clothes.
Some charities also offer help to families in need. Charity Turn2Us has a free grant search tool on its website that you can use to find out what help is available to you.
Charity shops can also be a good place to find cheap school uniforms.
