The Best Back-to-School Deals You Can Find on Amazon Right Now

Cross a bunch of things off your list at once with this all-in-one supplies kit from Sharpie. It comes with Crayola markers, crayons, three Elmer's glue sticks, a standard 12-inch ruler, scissors, notebooks, erasers and more. It also includes a pencil box, which is essential for stashing away the smaller items.

If your student will be in middle school, high school or college, chances are they'll need a scientific calculator. But if you've ever shopped for a scientific calculator, you know how expensive they can be. This Texas Instruments model is reasonably priced and does the job. It's easy to use and a great size that fits nicely in your hand.

A full laptop is a splurge, but if you're looking for the best bang for your buck -- and to get something with more computing power and longevity than a Chromebook -- the M1 MacBook Air is tough to beat at this price. Back at its lowest price ever, this is a whopping $249 less than you'd pay at the Apple Store (though the education discount there and Apple's back-to-school gift card might even that out a bit). Yes, this is a 2020 model, but even this first-gen Apple Silicon chip will run rings around older Intel-powered models. 

This classic backpack is durable, comfortable, and has enough space to fit plenty of supplies without becoming too unwieldy. A nice-to-have feature is the padded laptop compartment, since a lot of students now need to bring Chromebooks or tablets to school. Plus, there's a handy USB port with a built-in charging cable so students can charge their devices on the go.
