Presented by As much as it pains us to say it, summer is on its way out and back to school is just around the corner. Classes, homework, and late-night study sessions are only a week away for most students. But if the thought of the looming school season makes you want to cry, don't worry. There's one thing that makes it a bit more bearable: shopping. If there's anything that soothes the back-to-school blues, it's shopping. Whether you're shopping for binders, a laptop, or a whole new wardrobe, back to school shopping is fun. So why not make it even more enjoyable? There's a website that gives you Cash Back when you use it to shop for literally hundreds of stores. It's called Rakuten.ca, and it'll change the way you shop.
