Prepare for Back-To-School with Green Oak Village Place

The post below is sponsored by Green Oak Village Place. All opinions expressed belong to me.

It’s hard to believe it’s already time to gear up for back-to-school. The summer sure slipped by fast. While bittersweet, we are ready for routine and fall sports!

With heading back to school, comes all the necessary purchases from backpacks to socks to shoes. In fact, the average household budgets about $600 per child for spending. Wow-wee, that’s a lot! When you have a larger family, that definitely takes some planning.

I’m excited to partner for back-to-school with Green Oak Village Place in Brighton, Michigan to host a giveaway for parents since we all know we can use a little financial help this time of year.

Back-To-School With Green Oak Village Place

Here are a few of my family’s favorite stops for back-to-school shopping at Green Oak Village Place in Brighton:

• One Salon & Spa and Sola Salon: Get a fresh hair cut for fall
• Five Below: Nab school supplies, keychains for backpacks and locker supplies
• Dick’s Sporting Goods: Visit for comfortable clothing and shoes
• T.J. Maxx: Pick up backpacks, clothing, lunch supplies and more

Find the list of complete stores here. 

We visited recently and had fun shopping and scoping out trends.

When you’re done shopping, make sure to check out one of the great restaurants located in the plaza:

• Pick up a pizza at Rollin Stone Wood Fired Pizza {SO good!}
• Enjoy a Boba tea at Boba Bear {My tween especially enjoyed this}
• Do not skip out on the awesome grub at Joe Kool’s
• Get a to-go order from Panera Bread
• Get take-out from Kerby’s Koney Island
• Enjoy Mexican-inspired fare from Salsarita’s
• Grab wings at Buffalo Wild Wings
• Grab a coffee at the Starbucks inside Barnes & Noble

TIP: If you need to move after dining, check out the woodsy trail across from JCPenney. There is a paved walking path that leads to Island Lake State Recreation Area and a mountain bike trail.
