Lidl Ireland launch affordable Back to School range amid cost of living crisis

It’s nearly time to send the kids back to school (yay) with their new uniforms, neat stationary and a lunch box full of goodies.

But with the cost of living crisis continuing to spiral out of control in Ireland, saving savvy parents are looking to spend less with quality in mind. With thousands of Irish parents finding back to school a stressful period financially, Lidl Ireland have a range of affordable budget friendly options to suit all.

Taking the expense out of back-to-school shopping, Lidl have a range of high quality, affordable school uniforms, including boys’ and girls’ Smart Start Sweatshirts (€1.49), Kids School Shirts (€3.49), Trousers (€2.00), and Polo Shirts (€2.00) made with 100% pure cotton for extra comfort. They’re available in a wide variety of colours and sizes.

Alongside Lidl’s Smart Start school uniforms, Lidl is offering a fantastic selection of stationery and lunchtime essentials too, from backpacks (€6.99), Jumbo Coloured Pencils (€2.49), Drawing Pads (€1.99), School Paint Boxes (€3.49), Whiteboards (€8.99) to Compass sets (€2.99) and much more.

Mum to Ellie and Grace, and regular Lidl Shopper, Kathryn Thomas, said: “As a child, I loved the nervous excitement that came with back-to-school time, reconnecting with friends, new classrooms, new lunchboxes, the smell of the new pencil cases. It’s hard to believe I’m getting Ellie ready for her first day at school.

“As a parent, it’s an emotional time but can also be pretty expensive too. That’s why Lidl’s affordable back to school range is the best one-stop-shop. Uniforms, copy books, pencil cases, lunchboxes; everything we need to keep me and her happy for a fraction of the cost you’d pay elsewhere.”

Lidl’s affordable and responsibly sourced Smart Start back to school range hits stores nationwide from today, Monday, 8 August, providing everything your little ones need for their return to school.

Lidl’s Smart Start back to school range will be available in the retailer’s 216 stores across the country while stocks last - so hurry!
