Summer always flies by, and before you know it, it's time to restock backpacks, prep lunches and get into the rhythm of a new routine. But when the to-do list starts piling up, having one spot covering all your basics makes life easier.

Real Canadian Superstore and Real Atlantic Superstore have you covered for all the back-to-school essentials, from snacks and fresh produce to trendy supplies and quick weeknight dinners. They're a one-stop shop where you can find quality options that fit your budget, while scoring deals with their weekly flyer!

Whether you're stocking up for your kids, classroom or yourself, here are some must-haves that make the school season much easier.

For students

Young learners

Back-to-school is more fun with the right gear. The Joe Fresh x Crayola collab brings a pop of colour to any wardrobe, letting your kiddo stand out in the halls and make a lasting impression for the year. Help them stay organized with an Everyday Essentials Notebook and Post-it Sticky Notes to make studying way easier. To keep lunch fresh and organized, pack their faves in the PC Bento Lunch Box.

Post-Secondary Scholars

When campus gets hectic, make sure you have snacks to keep your energy high, such as a President's Choice or no name peanut-free snacks. Hydration is key, and the PC Duo Insulated Bottle is the perfect way for you to sip on a hot or cold drink throughout lectures. Managing early adulthood can be stressful, so be sure to not skip out on your self-care essentials, like Cetaphil Facial Cleanser, to keep your skin clear and confident all semester long.

Real Canadian Superstore and Real Atlantic Superstore also have a Fresh Promise program, so if it's not fresh, it's free! You can shop produce confidently, knowing quality is guaranteed.

For teachers

A Cozy Fleece Throw is the perfect accessory for relaxing after a long day, while classroom essentials like Staedtler pencils and trendy notebooks will keep lessons running smoothly.

Stock up on quick PC snacks to keep in your desk drawer, so you're prepared for any hungry emergencies.

When shopping in-store, save time and money by picking up groceries, supplies and even some Joe Fresh outfits for work in one go.
