Direct Auto & Life Insurance Helps Parents Prepare for Back to School
Free backpacks and a chance to win $1,000 for five local schools with free no-obligation quote
NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- As the summer draws to a close and teachers begin dusting off their lesson plans, families are squeezing in their last vacations and dips in the neighborhood pool. Back-to-school shopping can wait a few more days, right?
Those few days eventually turn into several, which turn into – stress. According to the National Retail Federation, the average family with children in grades K-12 had completed just half of their back-to-school shopping by mid-August. Direct is committed to easing the stress – and saving parents a little money – by checking one item off their supply lists for the upcoming school year.
Parents who stop by participating Direct locations July 20-Aug. 22 and get a free no-obligation quote will receive a free backpack. While there, parents can also enter a Back-to-School Sweepstakes for a chance to win a $1,000 shopping spree, and nominate their favorite school for a chance to win $1,000 towards school supplies.
