SAN FRANCISCO, August 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The summertime seems to fly by faster and faster each year, bringing us right back to the back-to-school season. It's time to start shopping for those pencils, books, backpacks, new school shoes, uniforms or school clothes, art supplies, and yes, those expensive text books. According to the Women & Co. and Parenting.com's 2012 Back-to-School Spending Report, 60% of moms expect to spend more on clothing for their kids than any other back-to-school purchase, with 9 out of 10 planning to spend more on kids' clothes than their own. Meanwhile the National Retail Federation's 2012 Back-to-School spending survey divulges that parents with kids in grades K-12 are projected to spend $688.62 on back-to-school shopping for their children, a big increase from $603.63 last year.
