Back to school: eight tips from DECO to save on school shopping

The back to school can represent a significant pressure on Portuguese family budgets. DECO, the consumer defence association, developed a set of eight tips to help guardians save on school shopping. These recommendations come at the start of the school year, a period when many families face increased expenses with school supplies, books and other necessary items. The organisation aims to guide consumers on how to minimise spending without compromising the quality of the items needed for the school year.
