There are more than 900 online retailers at Upromise, and parents can save 1 to 25 percent on purchases - money that can be deposited into a 529, used to pay down student loans or sent to parents as a check! Really - there are so many stores - school supplies at Staples, groceries, even dining and travel.
TOP FIVE TIPS FOR BACK TO SCHOOL SAVINGS:
1. Tired of buying and carrying around massive textbooks? Try out some of the newest e-readers! Students who buy an iPad at the Apple Store or an e-reader like the Nook Wifi® eReader from BarnesandNoble.com will receive 1 percent cash back towards their college savings. And for those who want to have a book in their hands, get 3 percent money back from Chegg.com and Textbooks.com when buying new or used textbooks and e-textbooks.
2. Don't let your child be the kid always asking to borrow someone's pencil! Go back fully prepared for all that school can throw at you by shopping online at Officemax.com or Staples.com and get 2 percent cash back for college!
3. Stay organized. Go back to school with the best bag for your child from eBags.com and earn 10 percent college savings! eBags.com features lunchboxes, traditional and wheeling backpacks as well as laptop bags from name brands like The Northface, JanSport and Timbuk2.
4. Make your child the most stylish in the classroom. Shop online and Upromise.com and find the latest fashions from stores like Lands¹ End and Nordstom, where you will earn 3 percent cash back, as well as Old Navy and Gap, both of which offer 5 percent back!
