Back-to-School Shoppers Will Get 20% Cash Back at 30 Top Stores from Aug. 8-12 at FreeShipping.com

Online shoppers can enjoy significant savings on back-to-school clothes, electronics, and other supplies at 30 popular retailers via FreeShipping.com's double-cash-back promotion


ROCKY HILL, CT--(Marketwired - August 04, 2016) - To help families save on their back-to-school shopping, FreeShipping.com is offering members 20% cash back on their purchases at 30 popular retailers from August 8-12.

Per the National Retail Federation, spending on back-to-school clothes, electronics, shoes, and other supplies for children in grades K-12 will total more than $27 billion this year, an average of about $674 per household. Spending for college students expected to reach $48.5 billion, an average of about $889 per family.

Just by shopping through FreeShipping.com, members can automatically earn 20% cash back at Macy's, Bed Bath & Beyond, L.L. Bean, Big Lots, P.C. Richard & Son, and 25 additional back-to-school stores.

"Our #1 goal at FreeShipping.com is to help consumers save money year-round -- and especially during the biggest shopping periods," said Tom Caporaso, CEO of Clarus Commerce, which owns and operates the program. "Back-to-school shopping ranks second only to the holiday season in spending, and all those purchases can put a big strain on household budgets. With our 20% cash-back deal, new and existing members will enjoy big savings on brand-name clothes, computers, calculators, notebooks, backpacks, and other school supplies -- all at over two dozen stores where they already shop."

"Last year, we offered 20% cash back at 10 top retailers, and our back-to-school shoppers loved it. Compared to an average shopping day at those retailers, FreeShipping.com members increased their orders by 74% and their total spending by 107%. Thanks to the proven appeal of 20% cash back and the addition of 20 more retailers, we expect our members to respond even more positively this year."

For $12.97 a month, FreeShipping.com subscribers enjoy a variety of money-saving benefits throughout the year, including:

  • Consistent 10% cash back and free shipping at checkout at over 1,000 retailers;
