It’s that time of the year for many kids and young adults to go back to school! Parents want to make sure their kids are fully stuffed with items that are actually needed to do well inside the classroom, while the kids themselves are looking for fun toys and gadgets. Well, we have good news for both kids and parents. Half.com (eBay’s sister site) would like to extend some savings to their American visitors by offering 10% off $100 orders.  Check the bottom of this post for full details.

Half.com is a giant Internet store, a subsidiary of eBay, but operates a very different online shopping experience than the one you are used at eBay for the most part. First and foremost, you buy items straight up, no need to wait for the bidding to end. Sellers range from many major retailers across the U.S.A. Items have a UPC, ISBN or other kind of SKU. You can also find rare, old or collectible items. You can also sell your unwanted items on the spot, like your used school text books, music or movies (sort of like you can sell your unwanted or unused gift cards at Giftah.com).
