Our back-to-school guide to avoiding Amazon and Walmart

Even if your annual back-to-school shopping trip might be canceled this year, that doesn’t mean you and the kids can’t create some sense of normalcy during these strange times.

‌

We've put together a guide to buying school supplies at places other than Amazon or Walmart. We've also rounded up everything from backpacks with wheels and kid-friendly meal kits, to blue-light-blocking glasses and children's desks — just to make sure you're prepared for whatever this school year looks like.

The 10 finds our shopping editors were obsessed with in July

You might have your eye on a quarantine purchase, whether you’re looking for cotton sheets on Amazon to catch some Zs, a kid-friendly meal kit that the entire family will love or a matching activewear set now that athleisure has become one of the biggest quarantine trends.

‌

Here at HuffPost Finds, our shopping editors shop a lot, searching through the internet for the best finds that, well, we can find. This month, we found sexy face shields (yes, they exist!), weekender bags with wheels for road trips and uh, underwear subscription services ... because you never know.

‌

In July, our editors were obsessed with a rattan crossbody bag that’s been complimented tons of times, an affordable under-eye concealer for a drop of dewiness and pretty face masks that make everything seem less scary. You can check down below to see what we would recommend this month.
