Back To School with Budons

Well it’s that time of year where it’s all about getting organised for back to school. Some parents are over excited and others dreading it – battling the crowds to buy books, rulers, pencils, etc. can be almost as hectic as Christmas shopping when the stores start their back to school sales (almost). There are so many different types of stationary on the market but this year I recommend having a look at Budons kids stationary. The variety of items are fun, unique and suit both boys and girls.

Smart thinking kiddo 😉 Thanks for the book grandad Times have changed so much since the tooth fairy stopped visiting me and the $1-$2 I used…

Whatever happened to good old fashioned customer service? It seems to me that staff complain about rude customers however it is becoming increasing obvious to me that it isn’t one sided. Businesses wonder why customers aren’t loyal and return or spread the good word and yet the answer is right in front them!   Staff can be the most rude and unwelcoming people. Everyone is encouraged to shop local yet are to feel like they are scum of the Earth when they try. It is also a common misconception that it is all the young kids that know no manners; I agree to a point but there are the fair share of older generation that treat people with not a shred of decency. Is there something wrong with my money? Not shiny enough for you or coated in diamond? Money is money and business is profit as far as I’m…
