As back-to-school shopping hits its peak in the UAE, families express concern over rising prices.
With just one week left before the new academic term begins in the UAE, students and parents are in a last-minute rush to complete their back-to-school shopping after the long summer break. However, this year's preparations are proving more challenging as families face a noticeable increase in the cost of essential school supplies.
From uniforms and textbooks to backpacks and stationery, nearly every item on the back-to-school list has seen a price hike compared to previous years. Many parents are finding themselves paying more than anticipated, stretching their budgets to cover the additional expenses. Some are choosing to buy fewer items or opting for less expensive alternatives to manage the higher costs.
Retailers have noticed the concerns among customers and are offering promotions and discounts in an effort to alleviate the financial burden, but for many families, these measures only partially offset the overall rise in prices. As the new school year approaches, the increased costs are adding stress to what is typically an exciting time for students and parents.
