Rite Aid Shelves Stocked with Back-to-School
Supplies to Help Students Succeed
School bells will soon be ringing, signaling the start of a new
school year and the second-busiest shopping season, according to
the National Retail Federation. No matter what’s on their back to
school shopping list, from lunchboxes and backpacks to tablets and
computer accessories and dorm room must haves, shelves at Rite
Aid’s more than 4,500 stores are stocked with everything students
need to succeed in the upcoming school year.
Stock Up and Save on Back-to-School Basics
Stock up on back-to-school basics from trusted brands like
Sharpie, Five-Star, Bic and Texas Instruments. Choose from an
assortment of pens, pencils, crayons, highlighters, composition
books, rulers, glue, tape and calculators. Rite Aid’s private
brand, Home, offers multi-colored notebooks, index cards, erasers
and more, many available for under $1. Shoppers will also find
lunchboxes, sandwich and snack containers and backpacks featuring
fresh designs.
A+ Electronics
Give your student an extra boost with electronics that make the
grade, like an 8.95-inch Windows tablet or a 19-inch LED TV. New
this year, mini-towers with Bluetooth technology and speakers from
Magnavox. For printing needs, Rite Aid carries a Canon printer,
copy paper and ink cartridges by HP, Epson and Canon. And help your
student stay connected, whether they’re on the go or away at
school, with Rite Aid’s selection of cell phone accessories
including wall and car chargers as well as standard and wireless

Dorm Room Must-Haves
Rite Aid has what college bound students need too, whether
they’re a first-year freshman or a senior returning for the final
year. Shop essentials like hangers, lamps and laundry baskets as
well as storage crates and trunks, available in a variety of
colors. Also available, appliances for easy college living
including irons, coffee makers and toasters.
Gift Cards
Gift cards always earn high marks and with more than 200 to
choose from, there’s a gift card for every student. Choose from
favorites like Rite Aid, Visa or American Express; iTunes, Google,
Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts; or streaming TV gift cards such as
Netflix or HBO Now. Or surprise college students with a meal at
their favorite restaurant such as Applebee’s, Chipotle or Olive
Garden and a trip to the movies or their favorite mall store. For
students abroad, Rite Aid also has banking solution products, like
Green Dot or Netspend cards, offering a secure, speedy and safe way
to send students money.
