INDIANAPOLIS — The rush is on to get kids ready for the school year.
In many cases, that involves shopping for paper, pens, pencils, clothes and more.

Experts say step one is to always begin your shopping inside your own home. You may be surprised what inventory you already have in your home.

Do not wait until the last minute.
