After close to 18 months in lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, schools will reopen in stages with safety precautions in place from October 3 onwards.
With schools reopen comes with back-to-school shopping for parents picking out the school and safety essentials needed.
Home retailer MR D.I.Y. announced that it will mark the occasion with a mega Back to School campaign, designed to help parents and students stock up on school and safety essentials at low prices.
The campaign, which runs through the month of October, offers up to 50% discounts on 51 essential back-to-school items at all 742 MR. D.I.Y. stores, as well as at their e-commerce website, www.mrdiy.com.my.
MR D.I.Y. group vice president of marketing Andy Chin said the group has always been a beacon for parents looking to stock up on school essentials when schools are beginning to reopen.
“Parents know that they can get school bags, stationery, and other paraphernalia at our stores at low prices. This year, we also realize that parents are concerned about keeping their children safe, which is why we have extended the back-to-school product range to include protective gear for children.
“By reducing the prices of these essential items, we hope to make the return to school affordable and stress-free for both parents and students. Knowing students are properly equipped will also make it easier for school authorities to ensure students adhere to the SOPs,” he said.
The MR D.I.Y. “Back to School” product lineup includes children’s face masks at RM1.40 for 10 pieces, the all-important face mask case at RM2.50 each, while children’s face shields will be priced at RM1.20 per piece.
Other return-to-school essentials include hand sanitizers in convenient 30ml refillable bottles at RM2.50 each, cutlery sets at RM2.90, and lunch boxes at RM2.00 each.
