SUMMARY: As the school year ends, Jackson County business owner Christina Bates of Old School Tutoring and Toys in Pascoula encourages parents to prepare early for next year’s school supplies to save money. Her shop sold over 500 school supply bags last year, and early deposits help manage inventory and keep prices low. Bates is also concerned about tariffs on supplies from China, hoping to buy in bulk before the tariff pause expires. Although she wishes to absorb extra costs, rising tariffs may force price increases. Families are urged to take advantage of current lower prices while possible.

One Coast business is concerned about tariffs impacting some supply prices and shipping costs.
